The Mesa package is named MesaLib-x.y.z.{tar.bz2, tar.gz, zip} where x.y.z
|
|
|
|
|
is the version. There are three types of compressed archives.

There's also the MesaGLUT-x.y.z.{tar.bz2, tar.gz, zip} packages which
|
|
|
|
|
contain Mark Kilgard's GLUT library.
|
|
|
|
|
This is optional.
|
|
|
|
|
Most Linux distributions include an implementation of GLUT (such as freeglut).

In the past, the Mesa demos collection was distributed as

|
|
|
|
MesaDemos-x.y.z.{tar.bz2, tar.gz, zip}.

Now, the
|
|

<a href="ftp://ftp.freedesktop.org/pub/mesa/demos/" target="_parent">
|
|
|
|
|
Mesa demos</a> are distributed separately.
