Mesa is primarily developed and used on Linux systems.
|
|
|
|
But there's also support for Windows, other flavors of Unix and other
|
|
|
|
systems such as Haiku.
|
|
|
|
We're actively developing and maintaining several hardware and
|
|
|
|
software drivers.

The primary API is OpenGL but there's also support for OpenGL ES 1
|
|
|
|
and ES 2, OpenVG and the EGL interface.

Deprecated Systems and Drivers

|
</h1>

|
<p>
|
|
|
|
In the past there were other drivers for older GPUs and operating
|
|
|
|
systems.
|
|
|
|
These have been removed from the Mesa source tree and distribution.
|
|
|
|
If anyone's interested though, the code can be found in the git repo.
