Mesa 25.1.4 Delivers Latest Open-Source OpenGL & Vulkan Driver Fixes

([Mesa] 12 Minutes Ago Mesa 25.1.4)


Eric Engestrom released Mesa 25.1.4 on Wednesday as the latest bi-weekly point release for this collection of open-source OpenGL and Vulkan drivers predominantly used on Linux systems.

With the Mesa 25.1.4 release there are a number of Intel and Radeon driver fixes standing out as usual. Mesa 25.1.4 fixes an issue with encoding multiple video tiles with recent Video Core Next 4 (VCN4) firmware, Gallium/DRIL adding an entry-point for the Apple Asahi KMS driver, fixing the OpenBSD on POWER 64-bit build, updating Intel Battlemage device names for new products and [1]for BMG G31 , and various RADV driver fixes.

There are also random, small fixes to the other drivers like Raspberry Pi V3D, Arm Panfrost, and the Zink OpenGL-on-Vulkan common driver.

More details on the Mesa 25.1.4 changes collected over the past two weeks via the [2]Mesa-dev announcement .

phoronix

We've tried each spinning space mote
And reckoned its true worth:
Take us back again to the homes of men
On the cool, green hills of Earth.

The arching sky is calling
Spacemen back to their trade.
All hands! Standby! Free falling!
And the lights below us fade.
Out ride the sons of Terra,
Far drives the thundering jet,
Up leaps the race of Earthmen,
Out, far, and onward yet--

We pray for one last landing
On the globe that gave us birth;
Let us rest our eyes on the fleecy skies
And the cool, green hills of Earth.
-- Robert A. Heinlein, 1941
