+There are two ways to compile Mesa on Unix/X11 systems:
+
+1. The old way:
+    First type 'make' alone to see the list of system
+    configurations currently supported.  If you see your configuration on the
+    list, type 'make <config>'.  Most popular Unix/X workstations are currently
+    supported.
+
+    If your system configuration is not listed by 'make', you'll have to modify
+    the top-level Makefile and Make-config files.  There are instructions in
+    each file.
+
+
+2. The new way:
+    Type './configure' and then 'make'.  This uses GNU autoconfig.
+    See docs/INSTALL for more details.

+Notes on assembly language optimizations:
+
+   When using the old-style Makefiles, you can specify a configuration
+   that uses X86 assembly language optimizations (linux-3dnow for example).
+
+   The detection of MMX, 3DNow!, PIII/SSE, etc capability is done at
+   runtime.  That means you can compile Mesa for 3DNow! optimizations
+   even if you don't have an AMD CPU.
+
+   However, your Linux binutils and assembler must understand the
+   special instructions in order to compile them.  If you have
+   compilation problems, try upgrading your binutils.

 Header and library files:
    After you've compiled Mesa and tried the demos I recommend the following
    procedure for "installing" Mesa.
