So this may be the last RC, and it might not be. It will depend on whether anything more comes up next week, and how good I feel about things come next Sunday.

By the way, I have broken the record of the Glxgears values.

Fedora 17 PPC64 with kernel 4.2-rc8 has the best glxgears values I have ever seen on the X1000.



The best values before were on Lubuntu 12.04.5 with Mesa 8.0.4:

Code: Select all

christian@AmigaoneX1000:~$ vblank_mode=0 glxgears
ATTENTION: default value of option vblank_mode overridden by environment.

4.2.8 tested, works well.

"By the way, I have broken the record of the Glxgears values."

Yes, me too

The 3D for radeon 7xxx S.I. series work with new kernels?

[zzd10h]

No unfortunately, only 2D.

See, in the screenshot in my previous post, my ridiculous glxgears result with my R7-250X
