People who are concerned with +stability and reliability should stick with a previous release or wait +for Mesa 7.9.1. + +Mesa 7.9 implements the OpenGL 2.1 API, but the version reported by +glGetString(GL_VERSION) depends on the particular driver being used. +Some drivers don't support all the features required in OpenGL 2.1. + +See the `Compiling/Installing page <../install.html>`__ for +prerequisites for DRI hardware acceleration. + +MD5 checksums +------------- + +:: + + ed65ab425b25895c7f473d0a5e6e64f8 MesaLib-7.9.tar.gz + 82c740c49d572baa6da2b1a1eee90bca MesaLib-7.9.tar.bz2 + cd2b6ecec759b0457475e94bbb38fedb MesaLib-7.9.zip + 7b54af9fb9b1f6a1a65db2520f50848f MesaGLUT-7.9.tar.gz + 20d07419d1929f833fdb36bced290ad5 MesaGLUT-7.9.tar.bz2 + 62a7edecd7c92675cd6029b05217eb0a MesaGLUT-7.9.zip + +New features +------------ + +- New, improved GLSL compiler written by Intel.
