<H1>Compilation and Installation for Unix/X11</H1>

<p>
If you're not using a variant of Unix with X11, see the
<a href="systems.html">Supported Systems and Drivers</a> section
for instructions.
</p>
<H1>Compilation and Installation</H1>

<p>
There are two methods for building Mesa on Unix/X11 systems:
</p>
<ol>
<li><a href="#unix-x11">Unix / X11</a>
<li><a href="#windows">Windows</a>
<li><a href="#vms">VMS</a>
<li><a href="#other">Other</a>
</ol>

<dl>
<dt><a href="#new">NEW-STYLE</a><dt>
<dd>
Basically, type "./configure" followed by "make"
This <em>should</em> work on most Unix-like operating systems.
Unfortunately, autoconf/automake seems to seldom work reliably on non-Linux
systems. For that reason, the old-style make system is still supported
(and is the preferred method of the Mesa developers).
</dd>
<br>
<dt><a href="#old">OLD-STYLE</a><dt>
<dd>
Simply type <code>make</code> and you'll see a list of supported
system configurations. Pick one and type <code>make</code> <em>config</em>.
More details below.
<br>
</dd>
</dl>

<p>
<B>NOTE</b>: The GLUT library and demonstrations programs are in the
MesaDemos-x.y.z.tar.gz file. If you don't have GLUT or you want to
run some demos, download the MesaDemos package too.
</p>

<a name="unix-x11">
<H2>1. Unix/X11 Compilation and Installation</H1>

<p>
In either case, building Mesa entails the following:
<p>
Mesa uses a rather conventional Makefile system.
A GNU autoconf/automake system used to be included, but was discarded
in Mesa 5.1 because:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Compiling libGL, the OpenGL-replacement library.
<li>Compiling libGLU, the OpenGL Utility library.
<li>Compiling libglut, the GLUT library (if you downloaded the Mesa demos
package)
<li>Compiling the demonstration programs in the directories:
<code>demos, xdemos, samples</code> and <code>book</code>
(if you downloaded the Mesa demos package.)
<li>It seldom worked on IRIX, Solaris, AIX, etc.
<li>It was very compilicated
<li>Nobody maintained it
<li>libtool was just too weird
</ul>


<a name="new">
<H2>NEW-STYLE compilation and installation</H2>

<p>
<b> 0.</b> If you've downloaded Mesa via CVS there will not be a "configure"
script. You'll have to run the "bootstrap" script first. This script
may not work on any OS other than Linux. You'll need these programs
to run the bootstrap script:
If someone strongly feels that Mesa should have a autoconf/automake
system and wants to contribute one and maintain it, we'll consider
adding it again.
</p>

<pre>
autoconf 2.50
automake 1.4-p2
libtool 1.4
</pre>

<p>
<b>1.</b> Run the configure script
</p>

<pre>
./configure [options]
</pre>
<h3>1.1 Compilation</h3>

<p>
For Linux, it is recommended that you use:
If you've obtained Mesa through CVS, do this to first:
</p>
<pre>
./configure --prefix=/usr
cd Mesa-newtree
cp Makefile.X11 Makefile
</pre>

So that the headers and libs are located according to the Linux/OpenGL
standard spec at http://oss.sgi.com/projects/ogl-sample/ABI/
</p>
<p>
For Red Hat 8.0, Mandrake 9.1 and other Linux distros, you may have to use
the following:
Now, just type <b>make</b>.
You'll see a list of supported system configurations.
Choose one from the list (such as linux-x86), and type:
</p>
<pre>
export LDFLAGS="-lstdc++" ; ./configure --prefix=/usr
or
setenv LDFLAGS -lstdc++ ; ./configure --prefix=/usr
make linux-x86
</pre>
<p>
This works around a problem when building the GLU library. It needs to
be linked with the C++ runtime library, but libtool (for some reason)
doesn't do this.
That's it.
</p>
<pre>
Possible options are:

--prefix=DIR
The toplevel directory of the hierachy in which Mesa
will be installed (DIR/include,DIR/lib etc.).
The default is "/usr/local".

--sysconfdir=DIR
The directory where Mesa configuration files
will be stored. The default is "$prefix/etc".
You may want to overwrite the default with --sysconfdir=/etc.

--enable-static
Enable building of static libraries.
Static libraries are NOT built by default.
--disable-shared
Disable building of shared libraries.
Shared libraries are built by default.

--with-pic
--without-pic
In normal operation, libtool will build shared libraries from
PIC objects and static archives from non-PIC objects, except where one
or the other is not provided by the target host. By specifying
--with-pic you are asking libtool to build static archives from
PIC objects, and similarly by specifying --without-pic you are asking
libtool to build shared libraries from non-PIC objects.
libtool will only honour this flag where it will produce a
working library, otherwise it reverts to the default.
--enable-debug
Enable debugging messages (disabled by default).
--enable-profile
Enable profiling (disabled by default).
--disable-optimize
Disable extra optimizations (enabled by default,
i.e., optimize for maximum performance).
--enable-warn
Enable extended compiler warnings (disabled by default).
--enable-x86[=ARG]
--disable-x86
Enable/disable x86 assembler support to speed up Mesa
(autodetected by default). You may set `on' or `off'.
--enable-3dnow[=ARG]
--disable-3dnow
Enable/disable 3Dnow support to speed up Mesa
(autodetected by default). You may set `on' or `off'.
--enable-mmx[=ARG]
--disable-mmx
Enable/disable MMX support to speed up Mesa
(autodetected by default). You may set `on' or `off'.
--enable-sse[=ARG]
--disable-sse
Enable/disable SSE support to speed up Mesa
(autodetected by default). You may set `on' or `off'.
If you have a PentiumIII and want to use SSE make sure you have the
PIII Linux kernel-patch installed or things will fail!
You can get the patch from http://www.redhat.com/~dledford/linux_kernel.html
--with-glide[=DIR]
--without-glide
Enable/disable support for Glide (disabled by default).
DIR is the installation directory of Glide.
If Glide cannot be found, the driver won't be built.
--with-glut[=DIR]
--without-glut
Don't/use already-installed GLUT (autodetected by default).
DIR is the installation directory of Glut.
If GLUT cannot be found, the version shipped with Mesa will be built.
--with-ggi[=DIR]
--without-ggi
Enable/disable support for GGI (autodetected by default).
DIR is the installation directory of GGI.
If GGI cannot be found, the driver won't be built.

--disable-ggi-fbdev
Don't build the GGI fbdev target (autodetected by default).
--disable-ggi-genkgi
Don't build the GGI generic KGI driver (autodetected by default).
--disable-ggi-savage4
Don't build the GGI Savage4 KGI driver (autodetected by default).
--disable-osmesa
Disable OSmesa (offscreen rendering) support (enabled by default).

--with-svga[=DIR]
--without-svga
Enable/disable support for SVGALib (autodetected by default).
DIR is the installation directory of SVGALib.
If SVGALib cannot be found, the driver won't be built.

--x-includes=DIR
Search for the X include files in DIR.
--x-libraries=DIR
Search for the X library files in DIR.
</pre>

<p>
User specific compiler options can be set using the shell variable
CFLAGS. For instance,
</p>
<pre>
CFLAGS="-g -O2" ./configure
</pre>
<p>
(on some systems: env CFLAGS="-g -O2" ./configure)
sets the compiler flags to "-g -O2".
</p>
<p>
For more options run "./configure --help" and read INSTALL.GNU.
</p>
<h3>1.2 The libraries</h3>

<p>
<b>2.</b> To build the Mesa libraries run:
When compilation has finished, look in the top-level <b>lib/</b> directory.
You'll see a set of library files similar to this:
</p>
<pre>
make
lrwxrwxrwx 1 brian users 10 Sep 4 17:55 libGL.so -> libGL.so.1*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 brian users 19 Sep 4 17:55 libGL.so.1 -> libGL.so.1.4.050100*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 brian users 13940317 Sep 4 17:55 libGL.so.1.4.050100*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 brian users 11 Sep 4 17:54 libGLU.so -> libGLU.so.1*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 brian users 20 Sep 4 17:54 libGLU.so.1 -> libGLU.so.1.3.050100*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 brian users 324746 Sep 3 13:54 libGLU.so.1.1*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 brian users 2830539 Sep 4 17:54 libGLU.so.1.3.050100*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 brian users 12 Sep 4 17:53 libglut.so -> libglut.so.3*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 brian users 16 Sep 4 17:53 libglut.so.3 -> libglut.so.3.7.1*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 brian users 2426683 Sep 4 17:53 libglut.so.3.7.1*
</pre>
<p>(on some systems you may need to run <code>gmake</code> or
<code>gnumake</code> instead)
</p>

<p>
When finished, libGL.so will be in src/.libs/ and libGLU.so will be in
si-glu/.libs/, etc.
<b>libGL</b> is the main OpenGL library (i.e. Mesa).
<br>
<b>libGLU</b> is the OpenGL Utility library.
<br>
<b>libglut</b> is the GLUT library.
</p>


<h3>1.3 Running the demos</h3>

<p>
Optionally, you can strip the libraries using
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>
<pre>
make strip
</pre>

<p>
Now make sure that you have the permissions to install Mesa in the
specified directories, for example, by becoming super user ("su")
Then run:
</p>
<pre>
make install
</pre>
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>
Mesa is now installed.
Please don't move the installed files but rerun all installation
steps if you want to use other directories.
</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>
<b>3.</b>To test whether Mesa works properly you might want to run the
Mesa demos:
</p>
<pre>
make check
</pre>
<p>
Builds all demos.
Next, change to the Mesa/demos/ directory:
</p>
<pre>
make exec
</pre>
<blockquote>
<b>cd ../progs/demos</b>
</blockquote>

<p>
Builds and executes all demos.
Run a demo such as gears:
</p>


<a name="old">
<H2>OLD-STYLE compilation and installation</H2>
<blockquote>
<b>./gears</b>
</blockquote>

<p>
This procedure usually works when <code>./configure ; make</code> fails.
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>
<b>Note</b>: If you tried <code>./configure ; make</code> but it failed,
first copy the top-level <code>Makefile.X11</code> file over
<code>Makefile</code>.
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>
<B>Also Note</B>: if you've obtained Mesa directly from CVS you'll have
to copy the top-level Makefile.X11 to Makefile.
You should see something like this:
</p>
<pre>
libglut.so.3 => /home/brian/Mesa/lib/libglut.so.3 (0x40013000)

libICE.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libICE.so.6 (0x40650000)
</pre>

<p>
Just type <code>make</code> alone.
You'll see a list of supported system configurations.
Choose one and type <code>make</code> <em>config</em>
(for example <code>make linux-x86</code>).
The Mesa libraries and demo programs will be compiled.
Retrace your steps if this doesn't look right.
