10 Mesa supports the following environment variables:
11 </p>
12 <ul>
13 <li>MESA_NO_ASM - if set, disables all assembly language optimizations
14 <li>MESA_NO_MMX - if set, disables Intel MMX optimizations
15 <li>MESA_NO_3DNOW - if set, disables AMD 3DNow! optimizations
16 <li>MESA_NO_SSE - if set, disables Intel SSE optimizations
17 <li>MESA_DEBUG - if set, error messages are printed to stderr
18 <li>MESA_NO_DITHER - if set, disables dithering, overriding glEnable(GL_DITHER)
19 </ul>

21 <p>
22 The following environment variables are only applicable to the Xlib/X11
23 software driver:
24 </p>
25 <ul>
26 <li>MESA_RGB_VISUAL - specifies the X visual and depth for RGB mode (X only)
27 <li>MESA_CI_VISUAL - specifies the X visual and depth for CI mode (X only)
28 <li>MESA_BACK_BUFFER - specifies how to implement the back color buffer (X only)
29 <li>MESA_GAMMA - gamma correction coefficients (X only)
30 <li>MESA_XSYNC - enable synchronous X behavior (for X debugging only)
31 <li>MESA_GLX_FORCE_CI - if set, force GLX to treak 8bpp visuals as CI visuals
32 <li>MESA_GLX_FX - set to either "fullscreen" for full-screen rendering,
33 "window" to render into a window, or "disable" to disable the Glide driver.
34 <li>MESA_GLX_FORCE_ALPHA - if set, forces RGB windows to have an alpha channel.
35 </ul>
