1 2 Mesa 5.0.1 release notes 3 4 March 30, 2003 5 6 7 8Introduction 9------------ 10 11Mesa uses an even/odd version number scheme like the Linux kernel. 12Even-numbered versions (such as 5.0.x) designate stable releases. 13Odd-numbered versions (such as 4.1.x) designate new developmental releases. 14 15Mesa 5.0.1 just fixes bugs found since the 5.0 release. See the VERSIONS 16file for details. 17 18 19Device Driver Status 20-------------------- 21 22A number of Mesa's software drivers haven't been actively maintained for 23some time. We rely on volunteers to maintain many of these drivers. 24Here's the current status of all included drivers: 25 26 27Driver Status 28---------------------- --------------------- 29XMesa (Xlib) implements OpenGL 1.4 30OSMesa (off-screen) implements OpenGL 1.4 31FX (3dfx Voodoo1/2) implements OpenGL 1.3 32SVGA implements OpenGL 1.3 33Wind River UGL implements OpenGL 1.3 34Windows/Win32 implements OpenGL 1.4 35DJGPP implements OpenGL 1.4 36GGI implements OpenGL 1.3 37BeOS implements OpenGL 1.4 38Allegro needs updating 39D3D needs updating 40 41Note: supporting OpenGL 1.4 (vs. 1.3 or 1.2) usually only requires that the 42driver call the _mesa_enable_1_4_extensions() function. 43 44 45---------------------------------------------------------------------- 46
