Mesa 13.0.0 3D Graphics Library Adds OpenGL 4.5 Capability, Radeon Vulkan Driver

After being in development for the past month or so, during which it received a total of three RC (Release Candidate) builds, the final version of the highly-anticipated Mesa 13.0.0 3D Graphics Library is now available.

And it looks like it's a major release that we must have installed on our Linux-powered computers if we want to play games, use various OpenGL apps, or just have the best possible graphics support for our AMD Radeon, Nvidia, or Intel GPUs. The biggest new feature of Mesa 13.0.0 is, as expected, OpenGL 4.4 and OpenGL 4.5 capability.
While OpenGL 4.4/4.5 is there after upgrading to Mesa 13.0.0 stable, the drivers may show a lower version. That happens because of the pending Khronos CTS validation, but it will be fixed very soon in an upcoming point release, such as 13.0.1. The good news continues with a Radeon Vulkan driver (RADV) for supported AMD Radeon GPUs by the AMDGPU kernel driver. Full Story |
