But r100 can't really be ported to gallium even if you wanted... So all you can do easily is drop to swrast, which isn't terribly useful, so we just rely on apps wanting to use large points to convert them to tris themselves. Seems fair enough, apps shouldn't expect large point size support (well not on this old hardware at least...), the driver reports this correctly for r100. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
