[Intel-gfx] [ANNOUNCE] xf86-video-intel 2.10.901

Sat Feb 27 02:15:06 CET 2010

Snapshot 2.10.901 (2010-02-26)
==============================
This is the first release candidate working toward an upcoming 2.11
release.

The most significant new feature of this release is support for new
DRI2 APIs, allowing page flipping to occur for swaps that are
full-screen and not rotated.

Some significant bug fixes
--------------------------
* Avoid fallback due to failing to extract pixel value from an
  alpha-only solid, (this fix eliminated 1 second from Mobilin boot
  time).

  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26189

* Handle full-height blits without tearing in CopyRegion

  https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22475

Several other fixes and cleanups are included as well, (including the
removal of stale utility code that is now maintained in the separate
intel-gpu-tools module).

We'll of course appreciate any feedback from testing of this release,
(either here on the list or at bugs.freedesktop.org).

PS. As usual, if I've missed anything significant in these release
notes, please let me know, (either via email or by just adding a note to
the NEWS file), sot that we can prepare better release notes for the
2.11 release.
