Mesa 6.4 Release Notes

October 24, 2005

|
Introduction
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Mesa uses an even/odd version number scheme like the Linux kernel.
|
|
Odd numbered versions (such as 6.3) designate new developmental releases.
|
|
Even numbered versions (such as 6.4) designate stable releases.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6.4 is a bug-fix release. See the VERSIONS file for details.

|
GLUT tarball
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Starting with 6.4, the GLUT library sources are distributed in a separate
|
|
tarball. This was done at the request of Linux distro vendors who prefer
|
|
to use freeglut.
