Love the constant progress on the Linux side for drivers!
This is good but i hope it's really mature, last week i tried enable it on Hogwarts legacy with my Rx 6700xt and the game crashed instantly. I'm on Mesa 23.1, i will test again when 23.2 will release
How long will this take before its in stable? I'm not super familiar with how mesa works
I normally use git so can't say exactly how long, but there are typically 3 major releases per year, so you could estimate from that..
cheers
I think the devs are still working on the release of 23.2. We probably see it in october / november. Once it releases the availability depends solely on your distro. If you are on a fast updating / rolling distro such as tumbleweed or arch you'll get the new packages very quickly (usually days / a week after release)
that's not too bad if it's a few months then
