Introduction
|
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Mesa uses an even/odd version number scheme like the Linux kernel.
|
|
|
|
|
Odd numbered versions (such as 3.3) designate new developmental releases.
|
|
|
|
|
Even numbered versions (such as 3.4) designate stable releases.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The internal structure of Mesa 3.5 is (will be) changed so that it
|
|
|
|
|
is more modular. The motivation is better support of 3D hardware
|
|
|
|
|
such as T&L hardware in which much of core Mesa isn't needed.

New Extensions
|
|
|
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
GL_EXT_convolution
|
|
|
|
|
Adds image convolution to glRead/Copy/DrawPixels/TexImage.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
GL_ARB_imaging
|
|
|
|
|
This is the optional imaging subset of OpenGL 1.2.
|
|
|
|
|
It's the GL_EXT_convolution, GL_HP_convolution_border_modes,
|
|
|
|
|
GL_EXT_histogram, GL_EXT_color_table, GL_EXT_color_subtable
|
|
|
|
|
GL_EXT_blend_color, GL_EXT_blend_minmax, GL_EXT_blend_subtract
|
|
|
|
|
and GL_SGI_color_matrix extensions all rolled together.
|
|
|
|
|
This is supported in all software renderers but not in all
|
|
|
|
|
hardware drivers (3dfx for example).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
GL_ARB_texture_compression
|
|
|
|
|
This is supported in Mesa but only used by the 3dfx DRI drivers
|
|
|
|
|
for Voodoo4 and later.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
GL_NV_blend_square
|
|
|
|
|
Adds extra blend source and dest factors which allow squaring
|
|
|
|
|
of color values.
