Thats a bit of FUD there. Wayland is a server protocol. Fedora is going to be using Weston, the reference implementation, by default in the next...
Everything before r600 is almost feature complete in radeon. And for the record, Ubuntu and Kubuntu are both the same distro, the only difference is...
ITYM the classic Mesa backend vs the Gallium Mesa backend. Mesa still exists and provides the client libraries for GL and soon to be CL. Whats...
Yes, and Mesa has no glitches BECAUSE of AMD. AMD has admitted that ATI made a mistake in writing the drivers to begin with, and should have relied...
Yes/no. AMD drivers follow the GL specification more strictly, and thanks to Nvidia's "pay the developers in hardware and whores" program, developers...
The only platform-specific code is to deal with X or Linux, not specifically GL. You're unlikely to hit a bug in a GL app that crashes on Linux but...
Apple wrote the entire GL/driver stack in OSX, and AMD contributes to a very small part of it (the lowest layer of the HAL, and that binary blob is...
Nvidia has stated that they will not be supporting Wayland, so in about a year and a half you won't be able to use Nvidia hardware in Linux unless...
That isn't true anymore. Before AMD started calling it Catalyst for Linux, it was based on a different code tree. Now, they use the same code as the...
The proprietary drivers on Linux are called fglrx, and yes, its basically identical. Anything that screws up on Linux should also screw up on Windows.
Most people are still using fglrx either because they need OpenCL (mesa's OpenCL library isn't even close to complete yet) or their distro of choice...
I use neither a compositor nor tearfree.
As long as it doesn't turn into the disaster that was Supcom2, I'll probably be happy.
I'm using fglrx, not radeon, since I'm on radeonsi (a 7970) and that isn't sufficiently finished to use yet. I wrote the guide here:...
Says I'm not authorized to see that thread. Also, I'm aware its alpha, but I'm hoping the game errs towards less micromanagement and more actual...
