2344 <p><a href="https://www.nvidia.com/">nVidia</a> has released some Linux binaries for
2345 xfree86 3.3.3.1, along with the <b>full source</b>, which includes GLX acceleration
2346 based on Mesa 3.0. They can be downloaded from <code>https://www.nvidia.com/Products.nsf/htmlmedia/software_drivers.html</code>.</p>

2349 <p>Beta 2 of Mesa 3.1 has been make available at <code>ftp://ftp.mesa3d.org/mesa/beta/</code>.
2350 If you are into the quake scene, you may want to try this out, as it contains some
2351 optimizations specifically in the Q3A rendering path.

2354 <p>For those interested in the integration of Mesa into XFree86 4.0, Precision Insight
2355 has posted their lowlevel design documents at <code>http://www.precisioninsight.com</code>.</p>

2358 <pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
2359 US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
2360 Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
2361 newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
2362
2363 The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
2364 improve performance on 3d hardware. Thanks to Keith's work, many
2365 applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
2366 over Mesa 3.0. The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
2367 Mesa full time for some time to come.
2368

2370 information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.

2374 This donation from John/id is very generous. Keith and I are very
2375 grateful.
