Mesa 7.8.1 Release Notes / April 5, 2010
========================================
Mesa 7.8.1 fixes a couple critical bugs in the recent Mesa 7.8 release.
Even though this is a bug fix release, given its proximity to the 7.8
release, a new development release, it should also be considered new
development release. People who are concerned with stability and
reliability should stick with a previous release, such as 7.7.1, or wait
for Mesa 7.8.2.
Mesa 7.8.1 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 :doc:`Compiling/Installing page <../install>` for
prerequisites for DRI hardware acceleration.
