Mesa 6.0.1 release notes |
|
|
|
April 2, 2003 |

|
|
|
|
Introduction |
|
------------ |
|
|
|
Mesa uses an even/odd version number scheme like the Linux kernel. |
|
Even-numbered versions (such as 6.0.x) designate stable releases. |
|
Odd-numbered versions (such as 6.1.x) designate new developmental releases. |
|
|
|
Mesa 6.0.1 just fixes bugs found since the 6.0 release. See the VERSIONS |
|
file for details. |

Device Drivers |
|
-------------- |
|
|
|
Mesa advertises itself as supporting OpenGL 1.2, 1.3, 1.4 or 1.5 |
|
depending on the device driver's capabilities. For example, if the |
|
driver enables all the ARB extensions which are part of OpenGL 1.5 |
|
then glGetString(GL_VERSION) will return "1.5". Otherwise, it'll |
|
return "1.4" or the next lower version that implements all required |
|
functionality. |
|
|
|
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: |
