It's not clear to me what is good about Mesa or if it would even work with my X5000 setup, but I seem to have version 18.0.5 already, whether it actually does anything or not, so I downloaded the new one. But googling for how to install it gave me virtually nothing (install PPA?? Surely not). Any hints on why and how?xeno74 wrote: I compiled and tested the new RC8 ... kernel 4.19 and the new Mesa 18.2.2 on my X5000 and X1000 today. Both work without any problems.
PLEASE test them.
Thanks,
Christian

Yes, you’re right. It’s for gamers.kilaueabart wrote:Thanks, Christian. That sure made it easy.
The results of googling Mesa suggested to me that it is something especially good for gamers. I don't seem to have any games on 16.04.5 where I just now installed Mesa, although I think there are an incredible 54 of them in Remix!
