	Mesa 3D - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mesa 3D is a free software/open source graphics library, initially developed by Brian Paul in August 1993, that provides a generic OpenGL implementation for rendering three-dimensional graphics on multiple platforms.
		Though Mesa is not an officially licensed OpenGL implementation, the structure, syntax and semantics of the API is that of OpenGL.
		Mesa 3D is distributed under the MIT License.

		Mesa is a 3D graphics library which is source code compatible with OpenGL, Silicon Graphics' successor to Iris GL.
		Mesa has been written mainly by Brian Paul over the last 3 years and is currently (as of this writing) at version 1.2.8.
		All the details of converting the 3D model to a drawing on a flat screen are handled by the library, including one of the most tedious tasks in 3D programming--removal of hidden lines and surfaces.

	XFree86-3D-status: a FAQ (fwd)
		However, many other 3D graphics cards have the 2D and 3D parts on the same chip, but having 2 different programs talking to the same chip at the same time is likely to cause confusion unless the programs synchronize and coordinate their actions.
		The GGI project [13]http://www.ggi-project.org/ aims to provide a software layer underneath the X server and Mesa which talks to the hardware and could resolve conflicts between them; this is the same approach that SGI use on many of their systems.
		Mesa and Microsoft Operating Systems While Mesa build and run on Microsoft Operation Systems (DOS and Windows 3.x/95/98/NT) there are many different development environments (compilers) in use on them, and each one appears to require separate support.

	OpenGL - LQWiki
		OpenGL is the de facto standard API for modern 3D graphics on GNU/Linux, UNIX, Mac OS X, and most any other operating system that provides a way for folks to use 3D graphics on a computer.
		Also note that mesa doesn't only support linux+X11, it can be used on a whole range of other platforms.
		SIS 3d acceleration is only supported in recent versions, these aren't included in the latest XFree86 version yet.

	Slashdot \| Interview: Brian Paul Answers
		In the early generations of PC 3D hardware, the chip makers only implemented the features which were essential to satisfying the needs of gamers.
		However, the fact that Mesa is open source and that IHVs are releasing their technical specs changes this a bit.
		Mesa does exist for the Mac, but it's not distributed as part of the main Mesa distribution.

	OpenGL Platform & OS Implementations (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Mesa is a 3-D graphics library with an API which is very similar to that of OpenGL.
		To the extent that Mesa utilizes the OpenGL command syntax or state machine, it is being used with authorization from SGI.
		While Mesa is not a licensed OpenGL implementation, it is currently being tested with the OpenGL conformance tests.

	Linux.com - Mesa 3D
		Mesa is the library that provides the foundation for the 3D support included in XFree86.
		Originally, Mesa included a software-only libGL that only claims to be "similar to that of OpenGL." Mesa now also supports hardware acceleration for a growing number of cards (see their site for details).
		The Mesa package also includes an implementation of the libGLU Utility library and the libglut GL Utility Toolkit library.

	Systat Software Inc. - TableCurve 3D - Overview
		Once your XYZ data have been fit, TableCurve 3D automatically sorts and plots the fitted equations by the statistical criteria you select (r2, DOF adjusted r2, Fit Standard Error or the F Statistic).
		A 3D residuals graph as well as parameter output are generated for each fitted equation.
		TableCurve 3D also offers the Fill Sparse Grid option is generally used for grid-based data with incomplete elements, as occur with incomplete sampling, from the removal of outliers, and from the deliberately sparse design of experiments matrices.

	Be-hold: Haiku unified nVidia TNT/GeForce driver: News
		Mesa still has internal software rendering (fallback) functions using (more or less) the same sort of interface to Mesa's core, but the interface to HW drivers is completely new.
		Mesa very nicely takes care of doing software emulation of every other aspect you use, and the final rendering is then done by the accelerated driver.
		Mesa has it's own internal 'fallback' versions of them (like it has for all others as well), but in the case of these two it only uses them as long as AllocDepthBuffer is managed by Mesa internally as well.

	Debian -- xlibosmesa3 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Mesa is a 3D graphics library which presents an API intended to be compatible with OpenGL.
		XFree86 maintains its own version of the Mesa library (which is regularly resynchronized with the official one) to permit development of the XFree86 X server's Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI), which makes the 3D acceleration features of many modern video cards available to X client programmers.
		The off-screen rendering library (OSMesa) is an extension to Mesa, not an implementation of any OpenGL standard; therefore, it is packaged separately, so that any OpenGL-conformant library may be installed on a Debian system, and OpenGL-based programs may depend on any of them.

		I've compiled the mesa lib under cygnus/Gnu C, and made an example containing a major part of the graphics functionality I'd need to make an interesting 3D viewer/manipulator, especially once I've got the sockets working in any decent manner...
		This facility is available under mesa, I just didn't finish all the 'mask' programming that goes with it yet, because I focussed on other things.
		Basically, when Mesa is done updating windows, this function is called, and it keeps reading the opened socket stream until no more input is available.

		Mesa has been under development since 1993, and is written by Brian Paul.
		I consider this a very important project, as Mesa provides a GLPL copyrighted source that works with Unix, namely Linux, and allows development with commercial OpenGL in mind, as is available with Windows NT.
		As far as speed is an issue, there's always the possibility to take the Mesa source and introduce a completely separate code path for your particular functionality, while keeping the API.

		To use the Mesa 3D graphics library installed in labs in the Reynolds building (rooms 004 and 102-103) you should add the following line to the end of your.cshrc file.
		This should shutdown X windows and may cause the 3d card to be reset when the application ends.

	DRI User Guide
		Voodoo4/5 may be run at 24bpp (instead of 32bpp, the default) but 3D acceleration is not supported in that mode.
		3D acceleration for the i810 is only available in the 16 bit/pixel screen mode at this time.
		There have been problems in the past with the MGA driver being very sluggish when the DRI is enabled (to the point of being unusable.) This is caused by the graphics card not having an interrupt assigned to it.

		The Mesa 3D graphics library has been updated.
		One particularly spooky repeatable failure occurred when moving the camera around a graph that wasn't animating [and so was being drawn out of a single display list]; at particular orientations, Mesa would die while executing the display list.
		Changing the build setup to disable the x86 assembly modules [and use C instead] seemed to fix the worst ones, but it still doesn't seem as stable as Mesa 3.0.
