Marek & Mario Prep 10-bit Color Visual Support For Mesa/Gallium3D
Building off the work by Mario Kleiner, AMD developer Marek Olšák has been working on 10-bit color visual support within Mesa/Gallium3D.
Currently housed within Marek's Git branch are the patches by Mario and him for supporting 10-bit color visuals properly within Mesa and wired through for Gallium3D.
