Mesa 17.1.1 officially released

By Liam Dawe - 25 May 2017 at 8:17 pm UTC

The Mesa team has officially released Mesa 17.1.1 which is a bug fix release to provide better stability in the open source graphics drivers.

Highlights:

The Radeonsi driver gained a few more Vega10 PCI device IDS along with support for AMD's Raven Ridge. They also fixed some tessellation issues.
The i965 and ANV drivers have seen some DXT1 and BC1 format fixes.
The Mesa GLVND GLX library now handles glXGetDriverConfig

Quite a small release, but the major work is currently going into Mesa 17.2 due sometime in August.
