12 <p>
13 Mesa 7.6.1 is a bug-fix release fixing issues since version 7.6.
14 </p>
15 <p>
16 Mesa 7.6.1 implements the OpenGL 2.1 API, but the version reported by
17 glGetString(GL_VERSION) depends on the particular driver being used.
18 Some drivers don't support all the features required in OpenGL 2.1.
