GLX 1.2 and Mesa 1.5?

[Karl Burgess]

Hi,

With the current Xorg server the version of GLX is 1.2, but the software
implementation of OpenGL provided by the Mesa3d libraries claims to
support OpenGL version 1.5. If I run an application built for OpenGL
1.3 to the Xorg server built with the Mesa3d 1.5 OpenGL library, it will
abort with a BadRequest protocol error.

So why is the Xorg GLX layer only at version 1.2? Are there any plans for
it to move to OpenGL 1.3 in the future?
Is there a GLX 1.3 layer currently available in the OpenSource arena?
If there isn't a GLX 1.3 layer available, then how do we utilise the 
Mesa 1.5
functionality.

Any information much appreciated,
Thanks,
Karl
