- Mesa 6.0 release notes
-
- January 16, 2004
-
- PLEASE READ!!!!
-
-
-
-Introduction
-------------
-
-Mesa uses an even/odd version number scheme like the Linux kernel.
-Odd numbered versions (such as 5.1) designate new developmental releases.
-Even numbered versions (such as 6.0) designate stable releases.
-
-Mesa version 6.0 signifies two things:
-
- 1. A stabilization of the 5.1 development release
- 2. Implementation of the OpenGL 1.5 specification. When you query
- glGetString(GL_VERSION) "1.5" will be returned (as long as the
- driver supports all the required features).
-
-
-Note that the Mesa major version number is incremented with the OpenGL
-minor version number:
-
- Mesa 1.x == OpenGL 1.0
- Mesa 2.x == OpenGL 1.1
- Mesa 3.x == OpenGL 1.2
- Mesa 4.x == OpenGL 1.3
- Mesa 5.x == OpenGL 1.4
- Mesa 6.x == OpenGL 1.5
-
-
-
-New Features
-------------
-
-Mesa 5.1 already had all the new features of OpenGL 1.5, implemented as
-extensions. These extensions were simply promoted to standard features:
-
- GL_ARB_occlusion_query extension
- GL_ARB_texture_non_power_of_two extension
- GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object extension
- GL_EXT_shadow_funcs
-
-
-
-Device Drivers
---------------
-
-Mesa advertises itself as either OpenGL 1.2 or OpenGL 1.3 depending on
-the device driver. For example, 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:
-
