 <H2>1. Unix/X11 Compilation and Installation</H1>

 <h3>1.1 Compilation</h3>

 <p>
 Mesa may be compiled in several different ways:
 </p>
 <ul>
 <li><b><em>Stand-alone/Xlib mode</em></b> - Mesa will be compiled as
 a software renderer using Xlib to do all rendering.
 The libGL.so library will be a self-contained rendering library that will
 allow you to run OpenGL/GLX applications on any X server (regardless of
 whether it supports the GLX X server extension).
 You will <em>not</em> be able to use hardware 3D acceleration.
 <p>
 To compile stand-alone Mesa type <b>make</b> in the top-level directory.
 You'll see a list of supported system configurations.
 Choose one from the list (such as linux-x86), and type:
 </p>
 <pre>
     make linux-x86
 </pre>
 <p>This will produce libGL.so and several other libraries</p>
 </li>

 <li><b><em>DRI/accelerated</em></b> - The DRI hardware drivers for
 accelerated OpenGL rendering (for ATI, Intel, Matrox, etc) will be built.
 The libGL.so library will support the GLX extension and will load/use
 the DRI hardware drivers.

 <p>
 <b>Prerequisites:</b>
 </p>

 <ol>

 <li>
 <p>
 DRM kernel modules and header files from the
 <a href="http://dri.sf.net/" target="_parent">DRI</a> project.
 </p>

 <p>
 If you don't already have the DRM file, you can get the sources from
 CVS by doing:
 <pre>
 cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@anoncvs.freedesktop.org:/cvs/dri co drm
 </pre>
 <p>
 See the <a href="http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Building" target="_parent">
 DRI Building Instructions</a> for the steps to build the DRM modules.  Mesa
 6.5 requires at least libdrm 2.0.1 or greater.
 </p>
 <p>
 You can verify that the DRM files have been properly installed by
 running <code>pkg-config --modversion libdrm</code>

 </li>

 <li>
 Recent /usr/include/GL/glxproto.h file.
 <p>You'll need this if you get any errors about _GLXvop_BindTexImageEXT
 being undefined.
 </p>
 <p>
 Download/install the
 <a href="http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=xorg/proto/glproto.git">glproto</a>
 module from X.org git, or grab the
 <A href="http://webcvs.freedesktop.org/*checkout*/xorg/proto/GL/glxproto.h?rev=1.9&content-type=text%2Fplain">glxproto.h file</a> and put it in the
 Mesa/include/GL/ directory.
 </p>

 </li>

 <li>DRI-enabled X server.
 <p>Visit
 <a href="http://www.xfree86.org" target="_parent">XFree86</a>
 or
 <a href="http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software_2fXserver" target="_parent">
 X.org</a>
 for more information.
 </p>
 </li>

 </ol>


 <p>
 Build Mesa and the DRI hardware drivers by running
 </p>
 <pre>
    make linux-dri
 </pre>
 <p>
 There are also <code>linux-dri-x86</code>, <code>linux-dri-x86-64</code>,
 and <code>linux-ppc</code> configurations which are optimized for those
 architectures.
 </p>

 </li>
 </ul>


 <p>
 Later, if you want to rebuild for a different configuration run
 <code>make realclean</code> before rebuilding.
 </p>


 <h3>1.2 The libraries</h3>

 <p>
 When compilation has finished, look in the top-level <code>lib/</code>
 (or <code>lib64/</code>) directory.
 You'll see a set of library files similar to this:

 <h3>1.3 Running the demos</h3>

 <p>
 If you downloaded/unpacked the MesaDemos-x.y.z.tar.gz archive or
 obtained Mesa from CVS, the <b>progs/</b> directory will contain a
 bunch of demonstration programs.
 </p>

 <p>
 Before running a demo, you may have to set an environment variable
 (such as <b>LD_LIBRARY_PATH</b> on Linux) to indicate where the
 libraries are located.  For example:
 <p>
 <blockquote>
 <b>cd</b> into the Mesa <b>lib/</b> directory.
 <br>
 <b>setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH ${cwd}</b>   (if using csh or tcsh shell)
 <br>
 or,
 <br>
 <b>export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${PWD}</b>   (if using bash or sh shell)
 </blockquote>

 <p>
 Next, change to the Mesa/demos/ directory:
 </p>
 <blockquote>
 <b>cd ../progs/demos</b>
 </blockquote>

 <p>
 Run a demo such as gears:
 </p>
 <blockquote>
 <b>./gears</b>
 </blockquote>

 <p>
 If this doesn't work, try the <b>Mesa/progs/xdemos/glxinfo</b> program
 and see that it prints the expected Mesa version number.
 </p>

 <p>
 If you're using Linux or a similar OS, verify that the demo program is
 being linked with the proper library files:
 </p>
 <blockquote>
 <b>ldd gears</b>
 </blockquote>

 <p>
 You should see something like this:
 </p>
 <pre>
         libglut.so.3 => /home/brian/Mesa/lib/libglut.so.3 (0x40013000)
         libGLU.so.1 => /home/brian/Mesa/lib/libGLU.so.1 (0x40051000)

 </pre>

 <p>
 Retrace your steps if this doesn't look right.
 </p>


 <H3>1.4 Installing the header and library files</H3>

 <p>
 The standard location for the OpenGL header files on Unix-type systems is
 in <code>/usr/include/GL/</code>.
 The standard location for the libraries is <code>/usr/lib/</code>.
 For more information see, the
 <a href="http://oss.sgi.com/projects/ogl-sample/ABI/" target="_parent">
 Linux/OpenGL ABI specification</a>.
 </p>

 <p>
 If you'd like Mesa to co-exist with another implementation of OpenGL that's
 already installed, you'll have to choose different directories, like
 <code>/usr/local/include/GL/</code> and <code>/usr/local/lib/</code>.
 </p>

 <p>
 To install Mesa's headers and libraries, run <code>make install</code>.
 But first, check the Mesa/configs/default file and examine the values
 of the <b>INSTALL_DIR</b> and <b>DRI_DRIVER_INSTALL_DIR</b> variables.
 Change them if needed, then run <code>make install</code>
 </p>

 <p>
 Note: at runtime you can use the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable
 (on Linux at least) to switch
 between the Mesa libraries and other vendor's libraries whenever you want.
 This is a handy way to compare multiple OpenGL implementations.

	To compile stand-alone Mesa type <b>make</b> in the top-level directory.
	You'll see a list of supported system configurations.
	Choose one from the list (such as linux-x86), and type:
	</p>
	<pre>
	make linux-x86
	</pre>
	<p>This will produce libGL.so and several other libraries</p>
	</li>

	<li><b><em>DRI/accelerated</em></b> - The DRI hardware drivers for
	accelerated OpenGL rendering (for ATI, Intel, Matrox, etc) will be built.
	The libGL.so library will support the GLX extension and will load/use
	the DRI hardware drivers.

	<p>
	<b>Prerequisites:</b>
	</p>

	<h3>1.3 Running the demos</h3>

	<p>
	If you downloaded/unpacked the MesaDemos-x.y.z.tar.gz archive or
	obtained Mesa from CVS, the <b>progs/</b> directory will contain a
	bunch of demonstration programs.
	</p>

	<p>
	Before running a demo, you may have to set an environment variable
	(such as <b>LD_LIBRARY_PATH</b> on Linux) to indicate where the
	libraries are located. For example:
	<p>
	<blockquote>
	<b>cd</b> into the Mesa <b>lib/</b> directory.
	<br>
	<b>setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH ${cwd}</b> (if using csh or tcsh shell)
	<br>
	or,
	<br>
	<b>export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${PWD}</b> (if using bash or sh shell)
	</blockquote>

	<p>
	Next, change to the Mesa/demos/ directory:
	</p>
	<blockquote>
	<b>cd ../progs/demos</b>
	</blockquote>

	<p>
	Run a demo such as gears:
	</p>
	<blockquote>
	<b>./gears</b>
	</blockquote>

	<p>
	If this doesn't work, try the <b>Mesa/progs/xdemos/glxinfo</b> program
	and see that it prints the expected Mesa version number.
	</p>

	<p>
	If you're using Linux or a similar OS, verify that the demo program is
	being linked with the proper library files:
	</p>
	<blockquote>
	<b>ldd gears</b>
	</blockquote>

	<H3>1.4 Installing the header and library files</H3>

	<p>
	The standard location for the OpenGL header files on Unix-type systems is
	in <code>/usr/include/GL/</code>.
	The standard location for the libraries is <code>/usr/lib/</code>.
	For more information see, the
	<a href="http://oss.sgi.com/projects/ogl-sample/ABI/" target="_parent">
	Linux/OpenGL ABI specification</a>.
	</p>

	<p>
	If you'd like Mesa to co-exist with another implementation of OpenGL that's
	already installed, you'll have to choose different directories, like
	<code>/usr/local/include/GL/</code> and <code>/usr/local/lib/</code>.
	</p>

	<p>
	To install Mesa's headers and libraries, run <code>make install</code>.
	But first, check the Mesa/configs/default file and examine the values
	of the <b>INSTALL_DIR</b> and <b>DRI_DRIVER_INSTALL_DIR</b> variables.
	Change them if needed, then run <code>make install</code>
	</p>

	<p>
	Note: at runtime you can use the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable
	(on Linux at least) to switch
	between the Mesa libraries and other vendor's libraries whenever you want.
	This is a handy way to compare multiple OpenGL implementations.
