Not of much interest here, it drives the qemu stdvga with offb, not bochs-drm. More interesting: RHEL-7.3 (gnome 3.14) works fine too. kernel 3.10, but drm drivers updated to roughly 4.6 level. Runs bochs-drm. mesa 11.2.2. glamour not used. Most recent: Fedora 25 (gnome 3.22) looks mostly ok, but there are rendering glitches, for example in the gnome activities screen (the one you get when you press the windows key). kernel 4.10, mesa 13.0.4. glamor not used, but I think gnome-shell uses opengl (via llvmpipe) for compositing. btw: is there some way to start a wayland session from a shell (i.e. what startx does for xorg)? cheers, Gerd _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
