Mesa 5.0 release notes |
|
|
|
November 13, 2002 |

PLEASE READ!!!! |

|
Introduction |
|
------------ |
|
|
|
Mesa uses an even/odd version number scheme like the Linux kernel. |
|
Even-numbered versions (such as 5.0) designate stable releases. |
|
Odd-numbered versions (such as 4.1) designate new developmental releases. |
|
|
|
Mesa 5.0 is basically just a stabilization of Mesa 4.1. To see a list of |
|
bug fixes, etc. see the VERSIONS file. |

New Features in Mesa 5.0 |
|
------------------------ |
|
|
|
Mesa 5.0 supports OpenGL 1.4. Note Mesa's versioning convention: |
|
|
|
OpenGL Version Mesa Version |
|
------------------------------ |
|
1.0 1.x |
|
1.1 2.x |
|
1.2 3.x |
|
1.3 4.x |
|
1.4 5.x |
|
|
|
OpenGL 1.4 (and Mesa 5.0) incorporates the following OpenGL extensions as |
|
standard features: |
|
|
|
GL_ARB_depth_texture |
|
GL_ARB_shadow |
|
GL_ARB_texture_env_crossbar |
|
GL_ARB_texture_mirror_repeat |
|
GL_ARB_window_pos |
|
GL_EXT_blend_color |
|
GL_EXT_blend_func_separate |
|
GL_EXT_blend_logic_op |
|
GL_EXT_blend_minmax |
|
GL_EXT_blend_subtract |
|
GL_EXT_fog_coord |
|
GL_EXT_multi_draw_arrays |
|
GL_EXT_point_parameters |
|
GL_EXT_secondary_color |
|
GL_EXT_stencil_wrap |
|
GL_SGIS_generate_mipmap |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Device Driver Status |
|
-------------------- |
|
|
|
A number of Mesa's software drivers haven't been actively maintained for |
|
some time. We rely on volunteers to maintain many of these drivers. |
|
Here's the current status of all included drivers: |
|
|
|
|
|
Driver Status |
|
---------------------- --------------------- |
|
XMesa (Xlib) implements OpenGL 1.4 |
|
OSMesa (off-screen) implements OpenGL 1.4 |
|
FX (3dfx Voodoo1/2) implements OpenGL 1.3 |
|
SVGA implements OpenGL 1.3 |
|
Wind River UGL implements OpenGL 1.3 |
|
Windows/Win32 implements OpenGL 1.4 |
|
DOS/DJGPP implements OpenGL 1.3 |
|
GGI implements OpenGL 1.3 |
|
DOS implements OpenGL 1.4 |
|
BeOS needs updating (underway) |
|
Allegro needs updating |
|
D3D needs updating |
|
|
|
Note: supporting OpenGL 1.4 (vs. 1.3 or 1.2) usually only requires that the |
|
driver call the _mesa_enable_1_4_extensions() function. |
