about kcm: MESA 3D always shows version: 0.0, even if mesa package 17.3.2 is installed #19

We get the Mesa version from the Mesa implementation ( in this case, ARM's proprietary implementation ). This would need to be fixed upstream by ARM really since we don't actually know what version of Mesa they ship.

And even though the Mesa package is installed, it's not actually used since the proprietary implementation overrides those libraries

I am talking about normal Rolling version on x86 amd machine.

I get the mesa version numbers on my systems. What GPU and drivers are you seeing this with? This is a known issue with the proprietary drivers, which they would need to fix. screenshot_20180113_131549

Can we get the output of: glxinfo | grep version

I did find some reports about the radeon drivers also having this issue. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101475 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=103506

Yea, and the amdgpu, amdgpu-pro drivers might be different as well.
