Downloading

-Primary Mesa download site: -freedesktop.org (FTP) +You can download the released versions of Mesa via +HTTPS +or +FTP.

-When a new release is coming, release candidates (betas) may be found -here. +Starting with the first release of 2017, Mesa's version scheme is +year-based. Filenames are in the form mesa-Y.N.P.tar.gz, where +Y is the year (two digits), N is an incremental number +(starting at 0) and P is the patch number (0 for the first +release, 1 for the first patch after that).

- -

-The Mesa package is named MesaLib-x.y.z.{tar.bz2, tar.gz, zip} where x.y.z -is the version. There are three types of compressed archives. -

-There's also the MesaGLUT-x.y.z.{tar.bz2, tar.gz, zip} packages which -contain Mark Kilgard's GLUT library. -This is optional. -Most Linux distributions include an implementation of GLUT (such as freeglut). -

-

-In the past, the Mesa demos collection was distributed as -MesaDemos-x.y.z.{tar.bz2, tar.gz, zip}. -Now, the - -Mesa demos are distributed separately. +When a new release is coming, release candidates (betas) may be found +in the same directory, and are recognisable by the +mesa-Y.N.P-rcX.tar.gz filename.

Demos, GLUT, and GLU

-Proceed to the compilation and installation -instructions. +A package of SGI's GLU library is available +here

+

+A package of Mark Kilgard's GLUT library is available +here +

+ +

+The Mesa demos collection is available +here +

+ +

+In the past, GLUT, GLU and the Mesa demos were released in conjunction with +Mesa releases. But since GLUT, GLU and the demos change infrequently, they +were split off into their own git repositories: + +GLUT, +GLU and +Demos, +
