Downloading

-Mesa can be downloaded from the - -SourceForge download area. +Last development release: 6.3.2

-Since version 2.3, Mesa is distributed in two pieces: main library code -and demos. If you're upgrading from a previous version of Mesa or you're not -interested in the demos you can just download the core Mesa archive file. +Last stable release: 6.2.1

-Mesa is available in at least three archive formats: +Primary download site: +SourceForge

+ +

+Mesa is distributed in several parts: +

MesaLib-x.y.z - the main Mesa library source code, drivers + and documentation. +
MesaDemos-x.y.z - OpenGL demonstration and test programs. + Most of the programs require GLUT (either the + original GLUT by Mark Kilgard or + freeglut or + OpenGLUT). +
MesaGLUT-x.y.z - Mark Kilgard's GLUT, easily compiled and used + with Mesa. Plus, other implementation of GLUT for DOS, OS/2, BeOS, etc. +

+ +

+If you're not interested in running the demos, you'll only need the first +package. +

+ +

+The packages are available in .tar.gz, .tar.bz2 and .zip formats. +Other organizations might offer additional package formats. +

+ +

Unpacking

+ +

+All the packages should be in the same directory prior to unpacking. +

+ +

To unpack .tar.gz files: +

+	tar zxf MesaLib-X.Y.tar.gz
+	tar zxf MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.gz
+	tar zxf MesaGLUT-X.Y.tar.gz
+

+or +

+	gzcat MesaLib-X.Y.tar.gz | tar xf -
+	gzcat MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.gz | tar xf -
+	gzcat MesaGLUT-X.Y.tar.gz | tar xf -
+

+or

-1. GNU zip/tar
-
-	Download MesaLib-X.Y.tar.gz and optionally MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.gz
-	Unpack with:
-		gzcat MesaLib-X.Y.tar.gz | tar xf -
-		gzcat MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.gz | tar xf -
-	or
-		gunzip MesaLib-X.Y.tar.gz ; tar xf MesaLib-X.Y.tar
-		gunzip MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.gz ; tar xf MesaLib-X.Y.tar
-	or
-		tar zxf MesaLib-X.Y.tar.gz
-		tar zxf MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.gz
-
-	If you don't have gzcat try zcat instead.
-
-2. Unix compressed/tar
-
-	Download MesaLib-X.Y.tar.Z and optionally MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.Z
-	Unpack with:
-		zcat MesaLib-X.Y.tar.Z | tar xf -
-		zcat MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.Z | tar xf -
-
-3. ZIP format
-
-	Download MesaLib-X.Y.zip and optionally MesaDemos-X.Y.zip
-	Unpack with:
-		unzip MesaLib-X.Y.zip
-		unzip MesaDemos-X.Y.zip
+	gunzip MesaLib-X.Y.tar.gz ; tar xf MesaLib-X.Y.tar
+	gunzip MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.gz ; tar xf MesaDemos-X.Y.tar
+	gunzip MesaGLUT-X.Y.tar.gz ; tar xf MesaGLUT-X.Y.tar

To unpack .tar.bz2 files: +

+	bunzip2 -c MesaLib-X.Y.tar.gz | tar xf -
+	bunzip2 -c MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.gz | tar xf -
+	bunzip2 -c MesaGLUT-X.Y.tar.gz | tar xf -
+

To unpack .zip files: +

+	unzip MesaLib-X.Y.zip
+	unzip MesaDemos-X.Y.zip
+	unzip MesaGLUT-X.Y.zip
+

+ + +
