Downloading / Unpacking

+ +

+Mesa can be downloaded from the + +SourceForge download area. +

+ +

+Since version 2.3, Mesa is distributed in two pieces: main library code +and demos. If you're upgrading from a previous version of Mesa or you're not +interested in the demos you can just download the core Mesa archive file. +

+ +

+Mesa is available in at least three archive formats: +

+ +

+1. GNU zip/tar
+
+	Download MesaLib-X.Y.tar.gz and optionally MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.gz
+	Unpack with:
+		gzcat MesaLib-X.Y.tar.gz | tar xf -
+		gzcat MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.gz | tar xf -
+	or
+		gunzip MesaLib-X.Y.tar.gz ; tar xf MesaLib-X.Y.tar
+		gunzip MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.gz ; tar xf MesaLib-X.Y.tar
+	or
+		tar zxf MesaLib-X.Y.tar.gz
+		tar zxf MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.gz
+
+	If you don't have gzcat try zcat instead.
+
+2. Unix compressed/tar
+
+	Download MesaLib-X.Y.tar.Z and optionally MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.Z
+	Unpack with:
+		zcat MesaLib-X.Y.tar.Z | tar xf -
+		zcat MesaDemos-X.Y.tar.Z | tar xf -
+
+3. ZIP format
+
+	Download MesaLib-X.Y.zip and optionally MesaDemos-X.Y.zip
+	Unpack with:
+		unzip MesaLib-X.Y.zip
+		unzip MesaDemos-X.Y.zip
+

+ +

+After unpacking you'll have these directories (and more): +

+Makefile.X11	- top-level Makefile for X11-based systems
+Make-config	- system configurations used by the Makefile.X11
+include/	- GL header (include) files
+bin/		- shell scripts for making shared libraries, etc
+lib/		- final client libraries, created during compilation
+docs/		- documentation
+src/		- source code for libraries
+src/mesa	- sources for the main Mesa library and device drivers
+src/glu		- libGLU source code
+src/glw		- Xt/Motif/OpenGL widget code
+
+
+and if you downloaded and unpacked the MesaDemos.X.Y archive:
+
+src/glut	- GLUT source code
+progs/		- OpenGL programs
+progs/demos	- original Mesa demos
+progs/xdemos	- GLX OpenGL/Mesa demos
+progs/redbook	- examples from the OpenGL Programming Guide
+progs/samples	- examples from SGI
+progs/images/	- image files
+
+

+ +

+Proceed to compilation and installation +instructions. +

+ +

GLUT

+ +

+Mesa 2.5 and later includes Mark Kilgard's GLUT library (GL Utility Toolkit). +GLUT is built automatically on systems which support it. +

+The GLUT tests, demos, examples, etc are not included, just the main library. +To obtain the latest complete release of GLUT please visit the +GLUT page on www.opengl.org. +
