Mesa 11.2.1 Released For Stable Users Of Open-Source Linux GPU Drivers

Written by Michael Larabel in Mesa on 17 April 2016 at 03:09 PM EDT. 18 Comments

Mesa 11.2.1 is now available as the first maintenance release for Mesa 11.2.

Mesa 11.2.1 has fixes for VA-API, Gallin3D Nine D3D9, game workarounds, and various bug/regression fixes to the common RadeonSI / Nouveau / i965 Mesa drivers. This doesn't contain any of the new exciting feature-work -- like OpenGL 4.2 for RadeonSI that's almost to GL 4.3 -- as that's all going into Mesa 11.3.

The complete listing of Mesa 11.2.1 changes can be found via today's release announcement.
