 Installation
 ============
 
-To compile the library, 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.
+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.
+
 
 The top-level makefile will execute the makefiles in a number of sub-
-directories.  When finished, the Mesa libraries will be in the Mesa-2.6/lib/
+directories.  When finished, the Mesa libraries will be in the Mesa-3.3/lib/
 directory.  A few GLUT demos in the demos/ directory should be ready to run.
 
 If you also downloaded and unpacked the demos there should be executables
 in the "xdemos/", "samples/", and "book/" directories for you to try out.
-If you only want to compile the contents of one subdirectory you can 'cd'
-to that directory and type 'make <config>' there.
-
-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.
 
 If you have compilation problems you should try to fix them and return the
 patches to the author.
 
 
+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.
