Andreas Bolla73c59b2012-09-18 19:31:28 +02001404<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 +00001405<p>3.2 (note even number) is a stabilization release of Mesa 3.1 meaning it's mainly
1406just bug fixes.</p>
Andreas Boll2d7f3192012-06-12 09:05:26 +02001407<p>Here's what's changed:</p>
1408<pre>
1409 Bug fixes:
1410 - mixed drawing of lines and bitmaps sometimes had wrong colors
1411 - added missing glHintPGI() function
1412 - fixed a polygon culling bug
1413 - fixed bugs in gluPartialDisk()
1414 - Z values in selection mode were wrong
1415 - added missing tokens:
1416 GL_SMOOTH_POINT_SIZE_RANGE
1417 GL_SMOOTH_POINT_SIZE_GRANULARITY
1418 GL_SMOOTH_LINE_WIDTH_RANGE
1419 GL_SMOOTH_LINE_WIDTH_GRANULARITY
1420 GL_ALIASED_POINT_SIZE_RANGE
1421 GL_ALIASED_LINE_WIDTH_RANGE
1422 - fixed glCopyPixels when copying from back to front buffer
1423 - GL_EXT_compiled_vertex_array tokens had _SGI suffix instead of _EXT
1424 - glDrawRangeElements(GL_LINES, 0, 1, 2, type, indices) was broken
1425 - glDeleteTextures() didn't decrement reference count correctly
1426 - GL_SRCA_ALPHA_SATURATE blend mode didn't work correctly
1427 - Actual depth of transformation matrix stacks was off by one
1428 - 24bpp visuals didn't address pixels correctly
1429 - mipmap level of detail (lambda) calculation simplified, more accurate
1430 - 101691 - Polygon clipping and GL_LINE
1431 - 101928 - Polygon clipping and GL_LINE (same fix as above)
1432 - 101808 - Non-glVertexArrays tristrip bug
1433 - 101971 - find_last_3f on Dec OSF (worked around)
1434 - 102369 - segv on dec osf (possibly a duplicate of the above)
1435 - 102893 - orientations of modelview cause segfault
1436 New:
1437 - updated SVGA Linux driver
1438 - added the MESA_FX_NO_SIGNALS env var, see docs/README.3DFX
1439 - build libGLw.a (Xt/OpenGL drawing area widget) library by default
1440 - changed -O2 to -O3 for a number of gcc configs
1441 Changes:
1442 - glXCopyContext's mask parameter is now unsigned long, per GLX spec
1443</pre>
Brian Paul0b27ace2003-03-08 17:38:57 +00001444
1445<p>Please report any problems with this release ASAP. Bugs should be filed on the
1446Mesa3D website at sourceforge.<br>
1447After 3.2 is wrapped up I hope to release 3.3 beta 1 soon afterward.</p>

1469and OpenGL on Linux.</p>
1470<p>While I'll be focused on Linux, the X Window System, and hardware acceleration,
1471my work will continue to be open sourced and available to any other programmers who
1472may want to contribute to it, or use it for other projects or platforms</p>
1473<p>PS: I'm going to be traveling until Sep 6 and won't be reading email until then.</p>

Brian Paul0b27ace2003-03-08 17:38:57 +00001509<pre>May 1999 - John Carmack of id Software, Inc. has made a donation of
1510US$10,000 to the Mesa project to support its continuing development.
1511Mesa is a free implementation of the OpenGL 3D graphics library and id's
1512newest game, Quake 3 Arena, will use Mesa as the 3D renderer on Linux.
1513
1514The donation will go to Keith Whitwell, who has been optimizing Mesa to
1515improve performance on 3d hardware. Thanks to Keith's work, many
1516applications using Mesa 3.1 will see a dramatic performance increase
1517over Mesa 3.0. The donation will allow Keith to continue working on
1518Mesa full time for some time to come.
1519
1520For more information about Mesa see www.mesa3d.org. For more
1521information about id Software, Inc. see www.idsoftware.com.

1523--------------------------------
1524
1525This donation from John/id is very generous. Keith and I are very
1526grateful.
