Andreas Bolla73c59b2012-09-18 19:31:28 +02001415<p>I've just upload the Mesa 3.2 beta 1 files to SourceForge at <a href="http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=3">http://sourceforge.net/project/filelist.php?group_id=3</a></p>
Brian Paul0b27ace2003-03-08 17:38:57 +00001416<p>3.2 (note even number) is a stabilization release of Mesa 3.1 meaning it's mainly
1417just bug fixes.</p>
Andreas Boll2d7f3192012-06-12 09:05:26 +02001418<p>Here's what's changed:</p>
1419<pre>
1420 Bug fixes:
1421 - mixed drawing of lines and bitmaps sometimes had wrong colors
1422 - added missing glHintPGI() function
1423 - fixed a polygon culling bug
1424 - fixed bugs in gluPartialDisk()
1425 - Z values in selection mode were wrong

1436 - glDeleteTextures() didn't decrement reference count correctly
1437 - GL_SRCA_ALPHA_SATURATE blend mode didn't work correctly
1438 - Actual depth of transformation matrix stacks was off by one
1439 - 24bpp visuals didn't address pixels correctly
1440 - mipmap level of detail (lambda) calculation simplified, more accurate
1441 - 101691 - Polygon clipping and GL_LINE
1442 - 101928 - Polygon clipping and GL_LINE (same fix as above)
1443 - 101808 - Non-glVertexArrays tristrip bug
1444 - 101971 - find_last_3f on Dec OSF (worked around)
1445 - 102369 - segv on dec osf (possibly a duplicate of the above)
1446 - 102893 - orientations of modelview cause segfault
1447 New:
1448 - updated SVGA Linux driver
1449 - added the MESA_FX_NO_SIGNALS env var, see docs/README.3DFX

1456<p>Please report any problems with this release ASAP. Bugs should be filed on the
1457Mesa3D website at sourceforge.<br>
1458After 3.2 is wrapped up I hope to release 3.3 beta 1 soon afterward.</p>

Brian Paul0b27ace2003-03-08 17:38:57 +00001520<pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
1521US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
1522Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
1523newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
1524
1525The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
1526improve performance on 3d hardware. Thanks to Keith's work, many
1527applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
1528over Mesa 3.0. The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
1529Mesa full time for some time to come.
1530
1531For more information about Mesa see www.mesa3d.org. For more
1532information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.

1536This donation from John/id is very generous. Keith and I are very
1537grateful.
