Re: mesa-git - latest videodrivers & issues

In case people are getting issues and wondering why, I believe the mesa-git repo needs a rebuild against latest libffi, a simple symlink works for now but is not clean.

Re: mesa-git - latest videodrivers & issues

Hello, there is a user in the [mesa-aco-git comments](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mesa-aco-git/#news) stating that users should use mesa-git with patch installed. There are no instructions on how to install the patch? Does anybody here know how? 

I kept mesa-aco-git for the sake of simplicity and I don't have to configure anything. It just works.

Re: mesa-git - latest videodrivers & issues

Hello,

can anyone share a backup of lordheavy's repo, say from a week ago? Current packages don't work, and I only have 1 previous versions in cache from 6th and they also have issues so I'd like to go back a little further. I stupidly emptied my cache earlier this week

Thanks!

Are you using AMD GFX8 card?, because recent mesa-git broke opengl on my AMD RX 580 until fixed by this commit, ac/surface: fix broken pitch override on gfx8
lordheavy's mesa-git may need to be rebuild again to include the fix.

Re: mesa-git - latest videodrivers & issues

Well actually it fixed my issue on previous build, of not being able to boot, but I still get screen corruption like with the build from the 6th.

I originally thought it was a kernel issue, but after rolling back to 5.6.8 and still having it, I guessed it was from Mesa, though not sure since I can't rollback

ex: https://i.imgur.com/l0UpCpZ.png

In Chrome and Konsole it only seems to happen in the top left corner, not sure what that means.

Re: mesa-git - latest videodrivers & issues

Not sure if it was on purpose, but you renamed vulkan-mesa-layer-git to vulkan-mesa-layers-git but not for 32b so the upgrade is currently impossible.

Doh!, it will be fixed in the next release.

Sorry!

Re: mesa-git - latest videodrivers & issues

@lordheavy Oh not related, and not necessarily an issue either just curious, how come there's been no recent llvm-git builds, is anything broken there?

Building llvm everyday, i think, is mostly useless, otherwise i try to update it regularly (once per week at least).

Oh I see, though I think between today's and the last build it was a bit closer to 2 weeks than one, which got me wondering.
Thanks for adding the 32b layers!

Re: mesa-git - latest videodrivers & issues

Both mesa-aco-git and lib32-mesa-aco-git contain the file /usr/bin/mesa-overlay-control.py and as such cannot be installed next to each other.
