It uses Xlib as a software renderer to do all rendering. It corresponds
to the option <code>--with-driver=xlib</code>. The libX11 and libXext
libraries, as well as the X11 development headers, will be need to
support the Xlib driver.

default, the drivers will be chosen depending on the target platform.
See the directory <code>src/mesa/drivers/dri</code> in the source tree
for available drivers. Beware that the swrast DRI driver is used by both
libGL and the X.Org xserver GLX module to do software rendering, so you

search for expat headers and libraries in <code>/usr/local/include</code>

of the color channel in bits to be specified. By default, an 8-bit
channel will be used, and the driver will be named libOSMesa. Other
options are 16- and 32-bit color channels, which will add the bit size
to the library name. For example, <code>--with-osmesa-bits=16</code>
will create the libOSMesa16 library with a 16-bit color channel.
