Mesa 4.0.3 release notes
June 25, 2002
PLEASE READ!!!!
Introduction
------------
Mesa uses an even/odd version number scheme like the Linux kernel.
Odd numbered versions (such as 3.3) designate new developmental releases.
Even numbered versions (such as 3.4) designate stable releases.
Mesa 4.0.3 basically just contains bug fixes version 4.0.2.
See the docs/VERSIONS file for the list of bug fixes.
The GGI driver has been updated, thanks to Filip Spacek.
Device Drivers
--------------
Mesa advertises itself as either OpenGL 1.2 or OpenGL 1.3 depending on the
device driver. If the driver enables all the ARB extensions which are part
of OpenGL 1.3 then glGetString(GL_VERSION) will return "1.3". Otherwise,
it'll return "1.2".
A number of Mesa's software drivers haven't been actively maintained for
some time. We rely on volunteers to maintain many of the drivers.
Here's the current status of all included drivers:
Driver Status
---------------------- ---------------------
XMesa (Xlib) implements OpenGL 1.3
OSMesa (off-screen) implements OpenGL 1.3
FX (3dfx Voodoo1/2) implements OpenGL 1.3
SVGA implements OpenGL 1.3
Wind River UGL implements OpenGL 1.3
Windows/Win32 implements OpenGL 1.3
DOS/DJGPP implements OpenGL 1.3 (new in Mesa 4.0.2)
GGI implements OpenGL 1.3
BeOS needs updating
Allegro needs updating
D3D needs updating
