Hi All,

Great news for ATI R300~R500 GPUs for example the ATi Radeon X1950 PRO Extreme, which I use in my X5000/20 and for my ATi Radeon X1650 SE, which I used in my X5000/20 and in my A1222 before. :-)
Void PPC and Debian PPC including the Debian based distributions like MintPPC and Fienix will get the new Mesa drivers.

Screenshots of my ATi Radeon X1950 PRO Extreme in action. :-)

Mesa 22.0 Released With Vulkan 1.3, Many Open-Source Intel & AMD Driver Improvements

You can already test it with Debian PowerPC (PPC32) and with MintPPC.

Instructions:

Please add the Debian experimental repo to the file /etc/apt/sources.list:

Code: Select all

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian-ports experimental main
After that, you can install the new Mesa 22.0 with the following commands:

Code: Select all

apt update

Code: Select all

apt install -t experimental libgl1-mesa-dri libgl1-mesa-glx mesa-utils
Be carefull with upgrading Debian PowerPC/PPC64 packages because it could be that some things don't work anymore after the upgrade.
I tested this Mesa upgrade today and it works.

apt show libgl1-mesa-dri -a
