| <h1>Contents</h1> |
| |
| <p> |
| After unpacking you'll have these files and directories (among others): |
| </p> |
| <pre> |

| configs/ - makefile parameter files for various systems |
| include/ - GL header (include) files |
| bin/ - shell scripts for making shared libraries, etc |
| docs/ - documentation |
| src/ - source code for libraries |
| src/mesa - sources for the main Mesa library and device drivers |
| src/gallium - sources for Gallium and Gallium drivers |
| src/glx - sources for building libGL with full GLX and DRI support |
| </pre> |

| <h1>Demos, GLUT, and GLU</h1> |
| |
| <p> |
| A package of SGI's GLU library is available |
| <a href="ftp://ftp.freedesktop.org/pub/mesa/glu/">here</a> |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| A package of Mark Kilgard's GLUT library is available |
| <a href="ftp://ftp.freedesktop.org/pub/mesa/glut/">here</a> |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| The Mesa demos collection is available |
| <a href="ftp://ftp.freedesktop.org/pub/mesa/demos/">here</a> |
| </p> |
| |
| <p> |
| In the past, GLUT, GLU and the Mesa demos were released in conjunction with |
| Mesa releases. But since GLUT, GLU and the demos change infrequently, they |
| were split off into their own git repositories: |
| |
| <a href="http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/glut/">GLUT</a>, |
| <a href="http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/glu/">GLU</a> and |
| <a href="http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/demos/">Demos</a>, |
