1044 Gallium3D is the codename for the new Mesa device driver architecture
1045 which is currently under development.
1046 </p>
1047 <p>
1048 Gallium3D development is taking place on the <em>gallium-0.1</em> branch
1049 of the git repository.
1050 Currently, there's only a software-only driver and an Intel i915/945 driver
1051 but other drivers will be coming...

2092 <p><a href="https://www.nvidia.com/">nVidia</a> has released some Linux binaries for
2093 xfree86 3.3.3.1, along with the <b>full source</b>, which includes GLX acceleration
2094 based on Mesa 3.0. They can be downloaded from <code>https://www.nvidia.com/Products.nsf/htmlmedia/software_drivers.html</code>.</p>

2097 <p>Beta 2 of Mesa 3.1 has been make available at <code>ftp://ftp.mesa3d.org/mesa/beta/</code>.
2098 If you are into the quake scene, you may want to try this out, as it contains some
2099 optimizations specifically in the Q3A rendering path.

2102 <p>For those interested in the integration of Mesa into XFree86 4.0, Precision Insight
2103 has posted their lowlevel design documents at <code>http://www.precisioninsight.com</code>.</p>

2106 <pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
2107 US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
2108 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
2109 newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
2110
2111 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
2112 improve performance on 3d hardware.  Thanks to Keith's work, many
2113 applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
2114 over Mesa 3.0.  The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
2115 Mesa full time for some time to come.
2116
2117 For more information about Mesa see www.mesa3d.org.  For more
2118 information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.
