Past postings are available from our web site at <http://www.xig.com/Lists/summit-announce>. ======================= Thanks for using Xi Graphics products! Xi Graphics is pleased to announce the release of updated Summit MX 2.1 drivers. Here are the drivers that have been updated: Summit_MX-Bronze-2.1-2-LINUX.tar Summit_MX-Gold-2.1-2-LINUX.tar Summit_MX-Platinum-2.1-2-LINUX.tar Summit_MX-Silver-2.1-2-LINUX.tar Summit_MX-Bronze-2.1-2-Solaris.tar Summit_MX-Gold-2.1-2-Solaris.tar Summit_MX-Platinum-2.1-2-Solaris.tar Summit_MX-Silver-2.1-2-Solaris.tar These drivers can be downloaded from the following directories for Linux and Solaris, respectively: ftp://ftp.xig.com/pub/Summit/linux/multihead/ ftp://ftp.xig.com/pub/Summit/solaris/multihead/ The following are the changes that have been made to these drivers: 03/14/2002 [2.1.1-10/ogl9a] 2.1-3 MX packages - significant Matrox performance increases - SMP interrupt fixes for Matrox and E&S drivers - A lock up using XMMS with Matrox G200MMS/G4XX on SMP systems has been addressed. - corrected a clipping problem with the Radeons. In cases where a window partially occluded a 3D window, sometimes the 3D window would be clipped out (not visible) until the overlapping window was moved out of the way. - more Radeon 7500 fixes - added thresholds for minimum display list caching size, and clip size - fixed a mach64 flushing problem - fixed server core when beep with a frequency of 0 supplied (xdos). - fixed several generic geometry problems - wrong code generated for flat-non-lit cases. - generated wrong/suboptimal code in many flat shaded cases. - further optimizations for slower PIII machines - line drawing bug in mem8 module (planemasking). - corrected GL/GLU g++ dependencies. In some circumstances, you may need to recompile code that had been compiled with previous versions of GL/GLU. - corrects cube mapping problems - glIsEnabled(GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_ARB) didn't work - EXT_texture_lod_bias fixed - corrects some problems seen with SSE/K3D instructions and floating point operations. - several other SSE/SSE2/MMX improvements - corrects some problems with the touchscreen drivers (pressure buttons) and an ELO flushing problem. - AMD machines are still showing occasional locks ups (even with AGP1X). PCI boards do not have this problem. - added normalize()/normalizef() to ogl.mod. normalizef() is the fast variant (that was in use overall before). This results in higher precision for lighting, and helps conformance for geometry engines - added Dvorak keyboard - fixed Japanese keyboard - There is a general problem where the OpenGL texture_env_combine extension may not work properly.
