Gallium3D XA State Tracker Merged To Master: Thomas Hellstrom of VMware has just merged to Mesa master the XA Gallium3D State Tracker that we previously talked about on Phoronix...

VMware's Gallium3D Driver For Virtualization: Brought up several times in our forums and elsewhere over the past few days has been VMware's Gallium3D driver that they use for guest 3D acceleration on their proprietary virtualization platform...

VMware's KMS Driver With QEMU: Recently we have been talking a lot about VMware's Gallium3D driver that they recently released along with DRM code that does support kernel mode-setting and allows this new 3D driver to function under their virtualization platform. By running this Gallium3D driver on the guest operating system of their VMware virtualization platform, it's possible to leverage the GPU hardware acceleration on the host not only for OpenGL acceleration but for areas of other state tracker coverage like OpenCL, OpenVG, X-Video / X11, and more.

VMware Releases Its New Gallium3D Driver: Last Friday during the Gallium3D workshop we learned that the Tungsten Graphics developers that were bought out by VMware have been working on a virtual Gallium3D driver that would be used by guest operating systems running within VMware's virtualization platform.

QEMU 0.9.1 Released, With New Features: QEMU, an open-source processor emulator, is out today with a new release. QEMU 0.9.1 introduces just under two dozen changes and is just under a year since the release of QEMU 0.9.0. Among the new changes in QEMU 0.9.1 include TFTP booting from host directory, monitor multiplexing to several I/O channels, CPU model selection support, support for MIPS 64-bit FPU and MIPS64, SVM x86 virtualization capabilities, strace for Linux user-land emulation, and VMware SVGA II graphics card support.
