Phoronix: GNOME Shell & Mutter 3.32.1 Released With Many Fixes

While missing the GNOME 3.32.1 point release that shipped last week, GNOME Shell and Mutter today experienced their 3.32.1 updates with a variety of fixes...

[re:fi.64]

Is the reference to 3.31.1 a typo that should be 3.33.1?

I currently use a Git version of Mutter a couple of weeks ago. I ran into problems with applications such as Firefox not being in focus until I click in the browser. What I mean is, if I open Firefox from the dock and do Ctrl+L to bring the address bar to focus, the browser didn't respond. If I Alt+Tab assuming Firefox is the only browser, then Firefox is in focus. I will switch from the Git version to stable version of Mutter soon.

Known issue afaik with newly launched applications not taking focus. I think there's a fix for it.

Heisenbug?

I was really surprised how good the performance was with 3.32 on xorg. But the Wayland session not getting the latest bunch of improvements was a shame, Heroes of the Storm is unplayable while it works totally fine on KWin Wayland.

[CODE]~$ glxinfo | grep "version"
...
OpenGL core profile version string: 3.3 (Core Profile) Mesa 18.3.6
...
OpenGL ES profile version string: OpenGL ES 3.0 Mesa 18.3.6

Either one of the versions quoted above would do so you are good to go. It takes a *very* old GPU to be out of support.
