Mesa 17.0.1 (graphics driver)

If someone finds a way to use it with Porteus, it would be great. I tried, but it freezes DE inputs as soon as it loads.

@fulalas
If arch mesa lib is valuable to eval,
you can use the modules converted from arch in Porteus 3.2.2.
These were tested by Porteus-XFCE-v3.2.2-x86_64.iso running.

mesa-from-arch.tar (21 M)
http://www.mediafire.com/file/7ko1m2q8m ... m-arch.tar
md5sum: 54c214595de6f895acd2c4f9a7155219 mesa-from-arch.tar

Code: Select all

$ tar -tf mesa-from-arch.tar
mesa-x86_64.xzm
wayland-1.13.0-x86_64-1.xzm
Thanks.

Thanks, neko. I followed exactly this approach, so your module, like mine, is a copy from Arch's Mesa build. :good:

But after figuring out wayland missing lib, I'm facing now an error when trying to execute any OpenGL app (libGL error: unable to load driver: i965_dri.so). However using the old libGL together with the new /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/dri/i965_dri.so it works flawlessly and glxinfo tells me that I'm currently using Mesa 17.0.1. So maybe libGL is just a collection of OpenGL extensions pointing to the real drivers found inside /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/dri/ :unknown:

Evan, I'm using full wayland-1.13.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz found here: http://ftp.osuosl.org/pub/archlinux/extra/os/x86_64/

You can still use Mesa 11 or 13 or 17.0.0 :)

@fulalas
I guess that the library missing problem was caused from directory array difference.
/usr/lib64, /lib64 are assigned to /usr/lib in Arch.
Therefore there is a possility that setting symbolic link as following may avoid this issue.

Code: Select all

% su
# cd /
# ln -sf /usr/lib64 /usr/lib
Thanks.

Oh, yeah! I'm aware of this, thanks. My module is Porteus ready. :)
