3Dfx Glide device driver



Requirements:
-------------

A Voodoo-based videocard/accelerator
DOS (with DJGPP), Windows9x/2k (with MinGW), Linux
Glide3x library for your OS

http://sourceforge.net/projects/glide/



How to compile:
---------------

DJGPP:
Place the Glide3 SDK in the top Mesa directory:
$(MESA)/glide3/include/
3dfx.h, g3ext.h, glide.h, glidesys.h, glideutl.h, sst1vid.h
$(MESA)/glide3/lib/
libgld3x.a, libgld3i.a, glide3x.dxe
Type:
make -f Makefile.DJ X86=1 FX=1
Look into the makefile for further information.

MinGW:
Place the Glide3 SDK in the top Mesa directory:
$(MESA)/glide3/include/
3dfx.h, g3ext.h, glide.h, glidesys.h, glideutl.h, sst1vid.h
$(MESA)/glide3/lib/
libglide3x.a, glide3x.dll
Type:
make -f Makefile.mgw X86=1 FX=1
Look into the makefile for further information.

Linux:
Place the Glide3 SDK in /usr/local/glide
/usr/local/glide/include/
3dfx.h, g3ext.h, glide.h, glidesys.h, glideutl.h, sst1vid.h
/usr/local/glide/lib/
libglide3x.a, libglide3x.so
Type:
make linux-glide
or
make linux-x86-glide



Compilation defines:
--------------------

FX_DEBUG
enable driver debug code
FX_TRAP_GLIDE
enable Glide trace code
FX_PACKEDCOLOR
use packed color in vertex structure
FX_TC_NAPALM
map GL_COMPRESSED_RGB[A] to FXT1. Works with VSA100-based cards only.
FX_COMPRESS_S3TC_AS_FXT1_HACK
map S3TC to FXT1
FX_RESCALE_BIG_TEXURES_HACK
fake textures larger than HW can support
(see MESA_FX_MAXLOD environment variable)



Environment variables:
----------------------

The following environment variables affect MesaFX. Those that affect Glide
only, are beyond the scope of this section. Entries that don't have a "Value"
field, can have any value whatsoever
ex: set MESA_FX_IGNORE_CMBEXT=y

"Note" (*) means that the environment variable affects Glide, too; also, if
the var is not found in the environment, it is searched in windoze registry.
"Note" (!) means that the environment variable is not working as expected;
may have undefined effects, might have effects only at Glide level or might
not have any effect whatsoever. Caveat emptor! Those are to be revised soon.

It is recommended to leave the envvars alone, so that Mesa/Glide will run with
default values. Use them only when you experience crashes or strange behavior.

WARNING! The info below this line is outdated (yet some of it useful). WARNING!
*******************************************************************************



Info for Mesa 4.1
-----------------

The 3dfx Glide driver in Mesa is disabled by default. Not too many people
use this driver anymore and at some point down the road it will be dropped.

To use/enable the Glide driver either do this:

'./configure --with-glide=DIR' Where DIR is the location of Glide, like
/usr/ or /usr/local

OR

'make linux-x86-glide' If using the old-style Makefile system.

The rest of this file hasn't changed since Mesa 3.3. Some of it's out of
date, but some is still valid.



What do you need ?
------------------

- A PC with a 3Dfx Voodoo1/2 Graphics or Voodoo Rush based board
(Pure3D, Monster 3D, R3D, Obsidian, Stingray 128/3D, etc.).
The Quantum3D Obsidian3D-2 X-24 requires some special env. setting
under Linux (more information in the "Useful Glide Environment
Variables");

- The 3Dfx Glide library 2.3 or later for your OS (the 2.4 works fine).
The Voodoo2 requires the Glide library 2.51. The Glide 3.1 is not
compatible with the Glide 2.x so it doesn't work with the current
version of the driver;

- A compiler supported by the Glide library (Micro$oft VC++ (tested),
Watcom (tested), GCC for Linux (tested), etc.);

- It's nice to have two monitors - one for your normal graphics
card and one for your 3Dfx card. If something goes wrong with
an application using the 3Dfx hardware you can still see your
normal screen in order to recover.



Tested on:
----------
Windows 95 - David Bucciarelli
Windows NT - Henri Fousse
MS-DOS
Linux - Daryll Strauss, Brian Paul, David Bucciarelli
FreeBSD
BeOS - Duncan Wilcox
MacOS - Fazekas Miklos


What is able to do ?
--------------------

- It is able accelerate points, lines and polygon with flat
shading, gouraud shading, Z-buffer, texture mapping, blending, fog and
antialiasing (when possible). There is also the support for rendering
in a window with a slow trick for the Voodoo Graphics (available only
for Linux) and at full speed with the Voodoo Rush chipset.
Under Linux is also possible to switch on-the-fly between the fullscreen
and in-window rendering hack.
There is also the support for using more than one Voodoo Graphics in the
some application/PC (you can create one context for each board and use
multiple video outputs for driving monitors, videoprojectors or HMDs).
The driver is able to fallback to pure software rendering when afeature
isn't supported by the Voodoo hardware (however software rendering is
very slow compared to hardware supported rendering)



How to compile:
---------------

Linux:
------
Here are the basic steps for using the 3Dfx hardware with Mesa
on Linux:

- You'll need the Glide library and headers. Mesa expects:
/usr/local/glide/include/*.h // all the Glide headers
/usr/local/glide/lib/libglide2x.so

If your Glide libraries and headers are in a different directory
you'll have to modify the Mesa-config and mklib.glide files.

- Unpack the MesaLib-3.1.tar.gz and MesaDemos-3.1.tar.gz archives;

- If you're going to use a newer Mesa/Glide driver than v0.27 then
unpack the new driver archive over the Mesa directory.

- In the Mesa-3.1 directory type "make linux-glide"

- Compilation _should_ finish without errors;

- Set your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable so that the
libglide2x.so and Mesa library files can be found. For example:
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH "/usr/local/glide/lib:/SOMEDIR/Mesa-3.1/lib"

- You'll have to run Glide-based programs as root or set the suid
bit on executables;

- Try a demo:
cd gdemos
su
setenv MESA_GLX_FX f
./gears (hit ESC to exit)

- You can find the demos especially designed for the Voodoo driver in
in the Mesa-3.1/3Dfx/demos directory (type "make" in order to compile
everything).

MacOS:
------
Check the WEB page at http://valerie.inf.elte.hu/~boga/Mesa.html
MS Windows:
-----------

For the MSVC++:
- The glide2x.lib have to be in the default MSVC++ lib directory;

- The Glide headers have to be in the default MSVC++ include directory;

- You must have the vcvars32.bat script in your PATH;

- Go to the directory Mesa-3.1 and run the mesafx.bat;

- The script will compile everything (Mesa-3.1/lib/OpenGL32.{lib,dll},
Mesa-3.1/lib/GLU32.{lib,dll}, Mesa-3.1/lib/GLUT32.{lib,dll} and
Voodoo demos);

- At the end, you will be in the Mesa-3.1/3Dfx/demos directory;

- Try some demo (fire.exe, teapot.exe, etc.) in order to check if
everything is OK (you can use Alt-Tab or Ctrl-F9 to switch between
the Voodoo screen and the windows desktop);

- Remember to copy the Mesa OpenGL32.dll, GLU32.dll and GLUT32.dll in the
some directory were you run your Mesa based applications.

- I think that you can easy change the Makefile.fx files in order
to work with other kind of compilers;

- To discover how open the 3Dfx screen, read the sources under
the Mesa-3.1/3Dfx/demos directory. You can use the GLUT library or
the Diego Picciani's wgl emulator.

NOTE: the MSVC++ 5.0 optimizer is really buggy. Also if you install the
SP3, you could have some problem (you can disable optimization in order
solve these kind of problems).


Doing more with Mesa & Linux Glide:
-----------------------------------

The MESA_GLX_FX environment variable can be used to coax most
GLX-based programs into using Glide (and the __GLUT library
is GLX-based__).

Full-screen 3Dfx rendering:
---------------------------

1. Set the MESA_GLX_FX variable to "fullscreen":

ksh:
export MESA_GLX_FX = "fullscreen"
csh:
setenv MESA_GLX_FX fullscreen

2. As root, run a GLX-based program (any GLUT demo on Linux).
3. Be careful: once the 3Dfx screen appears you won't be able
to see the GLUT windows on your X display. This can make using
the mouse tricky! One solution is to hook up your 3Dfx card to
a second monitor. If you can do this then set these env vars
first:

setenv SST_VGA_PASS 1
setenv SST_NOSHUTDOWN
or for the Voodoo2:

setenv SSTV2_VGA_PASS 1
setenv SSTV2_NOSHUTDOWN

Rendering into an X window with the help of the Voodoo hardware:
----------------------------------------------------------------

1. Start your X server in 16 bpp mode (XFree86: startx -- -bpp 16)
in order to have the best performance and the best visual
quality. However you can use any visual depth supported by X.

2. Set the following environment variables:
export MESA_GLX_FX="window" # to enable window rendering
export SST_VGA_PASS=1 # to stop video signal switching
export SST_NOSHUTDOWN=1 # to stop video signal switching
OR
setenv MESA_GLX_FX window
setenv SST_VGA_PASS 1
setenv SST_NOSHUTDOWN 1

(the Voodoo2 requires to use "SSTV2_" instead "SST_").

3. As root, try running a GLX-based program

How does it work? We use the 3Dfx hardware to do rendering then
copy the image from the 3Dfx frame buffer into an X window when
the SwapBuffers() function is called. The problem with this
idea is it's slow. The image must be copied from the 3Dfx frame
buffer to main memory then copied into the X window (and when the X
visual depth doesn't match the Voodoo framebufffer bit per pixel, it
is required also a pixel format translation).

NOTE: the in-window rendering feature only works with double-buffering.


On the fly switching between in window rendering and full screen rendering
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Mesa 2.6 has introduced the capability of switching
on-the-fly between the fullscreen/fullspeed rendering and the in-window
hack and vice versa. The on-the-fly switching requires a direct support
by the application but it is really easy to add. You have to start
your X server in 16 bpp mode and to add the following lines to your
application:

#if defined(FX) && define(XMESA)
#include <GL/xmesa.h>

static int fullscreen=1;
#endif

...

/* In the GLUT keyboard event callback */

#if defined(FX) && !define(WIN32)
case ' ':
fullscreen=(!fullscreen);
XMesaSetFXmode(fullscreen ? XMESA_FX_FULLSCREEN : XMESA_FX_WINDOW);
break;
#endif
...

See the 3Dfx/demos/tunnel.c program
for an example. You have to set the -DXMESA flag in the Makefile's COPTS
to enable it.

Rendering into an X window with the X11 software driver:
--------------------------------------------------------

Set the MESA_GLX_FX variable to "disable" your GLX-based program will use
the X11 software driver (the 3Dfx hardware isn't used at all).



Useful Glide Environment Variables:
-----------------------------------

- To disable the 3Dfx logo, set the FX_GLIDE_NO_SPLASH variable.

- To disable video signal switching:
setenv SST_VGA_PASS 1
setenv SST_NOSHUTDOWN
or for the Voodoo2:
setenv SSTV2_VGA_PASS 1
setenv SSTV2_NOSHUTDOWN

- To set the default screen refresh rate:
setenv SST_SCREENREFRESH=75

the supported values are 60, 70, 72, 75, 80, 85, 90, 100, 120.

- To force the Mesa library to swap buffers as fast as possible,
without any vertical blanking synchronization (useful for benchmarks):
setenv FX_GLIDE_SWAPINTERVAL 0
setenv SST_SWAP_EN_WAIT_ON_VIDSYNC 0

- You can slight improve the performances of your Voodoo1 board with
the following env. var.:
setenv SST_FASTMEM 1
setenv SST_PCIRD 1
setenv SST_GRXCLK 57

(don't use this setting with the Quantum3D 100SB or with any other
SLI configuration: it will hang everything !).
The following setting can be used with the Voodoo2:
setenv SSTV2_FASTMEM_RAS_READS=1
setenv SSTV2_FASTPCIRD=1
setenv SSTV2_GRXCLK=95

- The Quantum3D Obsidian3D-2 X-24 requires some special env. setting
in order to work under Linux:

export SSTV2_FT_CLKDEL=5
export SSTV2_TF0_CLKDEL=7
export SSTV2_TF1_CLKDEL=7
export SSTV2_TF2_CLKDEL=7
export SSTV2_SLIM_VIN_CLKDEL=3
export SSTV2_SLIM_VOUT_CLKDEL=2
export SSTV2_SLIS_VIN_CLKDEL=3
export SSTV2_SLIS_VOUT_CLKDEL=2

(Thanks to Phil Ross for this trick).




The Mesa/Voodoo Environment Variables:
--------------------------------------

- Only for Windows/Voodoo Rush users, if you define the
env. var. MESA_WGL_FX:
export MESA_WGL_FX=fullscreen
you will get fullscreen rendering;

- Only for Windows/Voodoo Rush users, if you define the
env. var. MESA_WGL_FX:
export MESA_WGL_FX=window
you will get window rendering (default value);

- Only for Linux users, you can find more informations about
the env. var. MESA_GLX_FX in the "Doing more with Mesa & Linux Glide"
section;

- If you define the env. var. MESA_FX_SWAP_PENDING:
export MESA_FX_SWAP_PENDING=4
you will able to set the maximum number of swapbuffers
commands in the Voodoo FIFO after a swapbuffer (default value: 2);

- If you define the env. var. MESA_FX_INFO:
export MESA_FX_INFO=1
you will get some useful statistic.

- If you define the env. var. MESA_FX_NO_SIGNALS:
export MESA_FX_NO_SIGNALS=1
Mesa/FX will not install atexit() or signal() handlers.



Know BUGS and Problems:
-----------------------

- fog doesn't work in the right way when using the glDepthRange() function;

- Maximum texture size: 256x256 (this is an hardware limit);

- Texture border aren't yet supported;

- A GL_BLEND in a glTexEnv() is not supported (it is an hardware limit);

- Use the glBindTexture extension (standard in OpenGL 1.1) for texture
mapping (the old way: glTexImage inside a display list, download
the texture map each time that you call the display list !!!);

- Stencil buffer and Accumulation buffer are emulated in software (they are not
directly supported by the Hardware);

- Color index mode not implemented (this is an hardware limit);

- Thre is an know bug in the Linux Glide library so the in-window-rendering hack
and any other operations that requires to read the Voodoo frame buffer
(like the accumulation buffer support) doesn't work on Voodoo SLI cards.

- The driver switch to pure software (_slow_) rendering when:

- Stencil enabled;
- Using the Accumulation buffer;
- Blend enabled and blend equation != GL_FUNC_ADD_EXT;
- Color logic operation enabled and color logic operation != GL_COPY;
- Using GL_SEPARATE_SPECULAR_COLOR;
- The four values of glColorMask() aren't the some;
- Texture 1D or 3D enabled;
- Texture function is GL_BLEND;
- Using the Multitexture extension with Voodoo cards with only one TMU;
- Using the Multitexture extension with Voodoo cards with more than
one TMU, and texture function isn't GL_MODULATE;
- Point size is != 1.0 or point params vector != (1.0,0.0,0.0);
- Line width != 1.0 or using stipple lines.
- Using polygon offset or stipple polygons;

NOTE: this is list is not yet complete.

Hints and Special Features:
---------------------------

- Under Linux and with a Voodoo Graphics board, you can use
XMesaSetFXmode(XMESA_FX_FULLSCREEN or XMESA_FX_WINDOW) in order to
switch on the fly between fullscreen rendering and the in-window-rendering
hack.

- The driver is able to use all the texture memory available: 2/4MB on
Voodoo1 boards and 8MB (!) on high-end Voodoo1 and Voodoo2 boards.

- Trilinear filtering is fully supported on Voodoo boards with two TMUs
(high-end Voodoo1 boards and Voodoo2 boards). When only one TMU is
available the driver fallback to bilinear filter also if you ask
for trilinear filtering.

- The Voodoo driver support multiple Voodoo Graphics boards in the
some PC. Using this feature, you can write applications that use
multiple monitors, videoprojectors or HMDs for the output. See
Mesa-3.1/3Dfx/demos/tunnel2.c for an example of how setup one
context for each board.

- The v0.19 introduces a new powerful texture memory manager: the
texture memory is used as a cache of the set of all defined texture
maps. You can now define several MBs of texture maps also with a 2MB
of texture memory (the texture memory manager will do automatically
all the swap out/swap in
texture memory work). The new texture memory manager has also
solved a lot of other bugs/no specs compliance/problems
related to the texture memory usage.

- Use triangles and quads strip: they are a LOT faster than sparse
triangles and quads.

- The Voodoo driver supports the GL_EXT_paletted_texture. it works
only with GL_COLOR_INDEX8_EXT, GL_RGBA palettes and the alpha value
is ignored because this is a limitation of the current Glide
version and of the Voodoo hardware. See Mesa-3.1/3Dfx/demos/paltex.c for
a demo of this extension.

- The Voodoo driver directly supports 3Dfx Global Palette extension.
It was written for GLQuake and I think that it isn't a good idea
to use this extension for any other purpose (it is a trick). See
Mesa-3.1/3Dfx/demos/glbpaltex.c for a demo of this extension.

- The Voodoo driver chooses the screen resolution according to the
requested window size. If you open a 640x480 window, you will get
a 640x480 screen resolution, if you open a 800x600 window, you
will get a 800x600 screen resolution, etc.
Most GLUT demos support the '-geometry' option, so you can choose
the screen resolution: 'tunnel -geometry 800x600'.
Clearly, you Voodoo board must have enough framebuffer RAM (otherwise
the window creation will fail).

- The glGetString(GL_RENDERER) returns more information
about the hardware configuration: "Mesa Glide <version>
<Voodoo_Graphics|Voodoo_Rush|UNKNOWN> <num> CARD/<num> FB/
<num> TM/<num> TMU/<NOSLI|SLI>"
where: <num> CARD is the card used for the current context,
<num> FB is the number of MB for the framebuffer,
<num> TM is the number of MB for the texture memory,
<num> TMU is the number of TMU. You can try to run
Mesa/demos/glinfo in order to have an example of the output.

Did you find a lot BUGs and problems ? Good, send me an email.



FAQ:
----

For a complete FAQ check the Bernd Kreimeier's Linux 3Dfx HOWTO
available at http://www.gamers.org/dEngine/xf3D (it includes also
a lot of informations not strictly related to Linux, so it can be
useful also if you don't use Linux)

1. What is 3Dfx?

3Dfx Interactive, Inc. is the company which builds the VooDoo 3-D graphics
chipset (and others) used in popular PC cards such as the Diamond Monster 3D
and the Orchid Righteous 3D (more informations at http://www.3dfx.com).


2. What is Glide?

Glide is a "thin" programming interface for the 3Dfx hardware. It was
originally written for Windows/Intel but has been ported to Linux/Intel
by Daryll Strauss.

3Dfx, Inc. should be applauded for allowing the Linux version of Glide
to be written.

You can directly program with the Glide library if you wish. You can
obtain Glide from the "Developer" section of the 3Dfx website: www.3dfx.com
There's a Linux/Glide newsgroup at news://news.3dfx.com/3dfx.glide.linux


3. What is fxmesa?

"fxmesa" is the name of the Mesa device driver for the 3Dfx Glide library.
It was written by David Bucciarelli and others. It works on both Linux
and Windows. Basically, it allows you to write and run OpenGL-style programs
on the 3Dfx hardware.


4. What is GLQuake?

Quake is a very popular game from id software, Inc. See www.idsoftware.com
GLQuake is a version of Quake written for OpenGL. There is now a Linux
version of GLQuake with works with the Mesa/3Dfx/Glide combo.

Here's what you need to run GLQuake on Linux:
PC with 100MHz Pentium or better
a 3Dfx-based card
Mesa 3.1 libraries: libMesaGL.so libMesaGLU.so
Glide 2.4 libraries: libglide2x.so libtexus.so
GLQuake for Linux.

Also, the windows version of GLQuake works fine with the Mesa OpenGL32.dll,
you have only to copy the Mesa-3.1/lib/OpenGL32.dll in the GLQuake directory
in order to test 'MesaQuake'.


5. What is GLUT?

GLUT is Mark Kilgard's OpenGL Utility Toolkit. It provides an API for
writing portable OpenGL programs with support for multiple windows, pop-
up menus, event handling, etc.

Check the Mark's home page for more informations (http://reality.sgi.com/mjk_asd).

Every OpenGL programmer should check out GLUT.

GLUT on Linux uses GLX.


6. What is GLX?

GLX is the OpenGL extension to the X Window System. I defines both a
programming API (glX*() functions) and a network protocol. Mesa implements
an emulation of GLX on Linux. A real GLX implementation would requires
hooks into the X server. The 3Dfx hardware can be used with GLX-based
programs via the MESA_GLX_FX environment variable.


7. Is the Voodoo driver able to use the 4Mb texture memory of
the Pure3D boards ?

Yes, the Voodoo driver v0.20 includes the support for Voodoo
Graphics boards with more than 2Mb of texture memory.


8. Do the Voodoo driver support the Voodoo Rush under Windows ?

Yes, Diego Picciani has developed the support for the Voodoo
Rush but David Bucciarelli has a Pure3D and a Monster3D and Brian Paul
has a Monster3D, so the new versions of the Mesa/Voodoo sometime are
not tested with the Voodoo Rush.


9. Do the Voodoo driver support the Voodoo Rush under Linux ?

No because the Linux Glide doesn't (yet) support the Voodoo Rush.


10. Can I sell my Mesa/Voodoo based software and include
a binary copy of the Mesa in order to make the software
working out of the box ?

Yes.


11. Which is the best make target for compiling the Mesa for
Linux GLQuake ('make linux-glide', 'make linux-386-glide', etc.) ?

'make linux-386-opt-glide' for Voodoo1 and 'make linux-386-opt-V2-glide'
for Voodoo2 boards because it doesn't include the '-fPIC'
option (4-5% faster).


12. Can I use a Mesa compiled with a 'make linux-386-opt-V2-glide'
for my applications/programs/demos ?

Yes, there is only one constrain: you can't run two Mesa applications
at the some time. This isn't a big issue with the today Voodoo Graphics.

AMIGA AMIWIN PORT of MESA: THE OPENGL SOFTWARE EMULATION
========================================================
Port by Victor Ng-Thow-Hing (victorng@dgp.toronto.edu)
Original Author (Brian Paul (brianp@ssec.wisc.edu)

Dec.1 , 1995: Port of release Mesa 1.2.5
- Modifications made to minimize changes to Mesa distribution.

Nov.25, 1995: Port of release Mesa 1.2.4


HISTORY
=======
As a 3D graphics progammer, I was increasingly frustrated to see OpenGL
appearing on so many platforms EXCEPT the Amiga. Up to now, the task
of porting OpenGL directly from native Amiga drawing routines seemed like
a daunting task. However, two important events made this port possible.

First of all, Brian Paul wrote Mesa, the OpenGL software emulator that
can be found on many platforms - except the Amiga and Atari (who cares
about the latter!). This was pretty ironic considering that Mesa was
originally prototyped on an Amiga! The second great event was when
Holger Kruse developed AmiWin, the X11R6 server for the Amiga (definitely
register for this great piece of software) and released a development kit
so one could compile X programs with SAS/C.

Since Mesa had X routines as its primitive drawing operations, this made
a marriage of Mesa and Amiwin feasible. I copied over the sources from
an ftp site, played with the code, wrote some Smakefiles, and voila,
I had OpenGL programs displaying on my Amiga.

Although the speed is nothing to be impressed about, this port can be
potentially useful to those who want to quickly test their code in
wireframe or perhaps learn more about programming with the OpenGL API.

I hope Amiga developers will continue to write excellent software for
their machine, especially more X clients for Amiwin. If you have any
solutions so some of my problems in the porting notes, please send me
some email!

See you around,
Vic.

HOW TO CREATE THE LIBRARIES AND SAMPLE CODE
===========================================

Just run the shell script mklib.amiwin in the mesa directory. This will
make all the libraries and copy them into the mesa/lib directory. If you
don't want to compile everything, just go to the desired directory and
type smake in that directory.

Change any of the variables in the smakefiles as necessary. You will REQUIRE
the Amiwin development kit to compile these libraries since you need X11.LIB
and the shareable X libraries. Some examples require the AmiTCP4.0
net.lib static link library and related header files for unix related
header files and functions like sleep().

HOW TO USE THE MESA LIBRARIES
=============================

Study the Smakefiles in the demos, samples and book directories for the
proper SAS/C options and linkable libraries to use. Basically aux calls
require Mesaaux.LIB, gl calls require MesaGL.LIB, glu calls MesaGLU.LIB,
tk calls Mesatk.LIB. There is a preliminary port of MesaGLUT.LIB toolkit
available in the lib directory with the other Mesa libraries. However,
it seems to cause crashes on some of the sample code. Someone else may want
to attempt a more stable port.

PORTING NOTES TO AMIWIN
=======================

My strategy of porting was to leave as much of the code untouched as
possible. I surrounded any amiga specific changes with
#ifdef AMIWIN ... #endif or #ifndef AMIWIN ... #endif preprocessor
symbols. The code was ported on an Amiga 2000, with Fusion 40 accelerator
and a Picasso II graphics card. The SAS/C 6.56 compiler was used, with
the AmiWin 2.16 X development kit.

All compilations were done for a 68040 CPU with 68882 math coprocessor for
maximum speed. Please edit the smakefile for other compilers.
I wrote smakefiles for the directories I ported. I omitted the Windows
and Widgets directories. The former is for MS Windows and the latter
requires Motif, which is not easily available for the Amiga.

Here are the changes I did per directory:

* mesa
Nov. 25, 1995 v 1.2.4
- added a mklib.amiwin shell script that will make all the libraries and
sample code for Mesa
- created this readme file: readme.AMIGA

* mesa/include
Dec. 1, 1995 v 1.2.5
- added the following to GL/xmesa.h
#ifdef AMIWIN

This prevents undefined symbols errors during the linking phase for
X library calls
- created smakefile
Dec. 1, 1995 v 1.2.5

already defined in include/GL/xmesa.h
- modified Smakefile to include header and includes from the AmiTCP4.0
net.lib linkable library to provide unix-compatible sys/time.h and
the sleep() function
- removed AMIWIN defines in xdemo.c since sleep() now defined
NET CHANGE: smakefile

* mesa/samples
Nov. 25, 1995 v 1.2.4
- added the necessary pragma calls for X functions to the following:
oglinfo.c

- removed olympic from smakefile targets since <sys/time.h> not defined
Dec. 1, 1995 v 1.2.5
- removed AMIWIN defines from oglinfo.c, since already defined in
include/GL/xmesa.h

confuse the near,far variables with near/far memory models.
NET CHANGE: smakefile

* mesa/windows
Dec. 1, 1995 v 1.2.5
- Removed directory to save space since this is only needed for Windows based
machines.

Mesa 6.5 DOS/DJGPP Port v1.8
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



Description:
~~~~~~~~~~~~

Well, guess what... this is the DOS port of Mesa 6.5, for DJGPP fans... Whoa!
The driver uses OSMesa to draw off screen, and then blits the buffer. This is
not terribly efficient, and has some drawbacks, but saves maintenance costs.



Legal:
~~~~~~

Mesa copyright applies.



Installation:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Unzip and type:

make -f Makefile.DJ [OPTIONS...]

Available options:

Environment variables:
CPU optimize for the given processor.
default = pentium
GLIDE path to Glide3 SDK; used with FX.
default = $(TOP)/glide3
FX=1 build for 3dfx Glide3. Note that this disables
compilation of most DMesa code and requires fxMesa.
As a consequence, you'll need the DJGPP Glide3
library to build any application.
default = no
X86=1 optimize for x86 (if possible, use MMX, SSE, 3DNow).
default = no

Targets:
all: build everything
libgl: build GL
libglu: build GLU
libglut: build GLUT
clean: remove object files
realclean: remove all generated files



Tested on:
Video card: Radeon 9500
DJGPP: djdev 2.04 + gcc v4.1.0 + make v3.80
OS: DOS, Win98SE, WinXP (using Videoport driver)



FAQ:
~~~~

1. Compilation

Q) `make' barfs and exits because it cannot find some stupid file.
A) You need LFN support.
A) When compiling for Glide (FX=1), pay attention to Glide path.

Q) Libraries built OK, but linker complains about `vsnprintf' every time I
compile some demo.
A) Upgrade to DJGPP 2.04.
A) Add `vsnprintf.c' to the CORE_SOURCES in `src/Makefile.DJ' (untested!).
A) Patch `src/mesa/main/imports.c' with the following line:
#define vsnprintf(buf, max, fmt, arg) vsprintf(buf, fmt, arg)
This hack should be safe in 90% of the cases, but if anything goes wrong,
don't come back to me crying.

Q) `make' complains about DXE3 or something, yet it builds the libraries.
A) DXE3 refers to the DJGPP dynamic modules. You'll need either the latest
DJGPP distro, or download the separate package from my web page. Read the
DXE3 documentation on how to use them.
A) When compiling for Glide (FX=1), make sure `glide3x.dxe' can be found in
LD_LIBRARY_PATH (or top `lib' directory).

2. Using Mesa for DJGPP

Q) Every test I tried crashes badly.
A) If you have compiled with SSE and you're running under plain DOS, you
have to disable SSE at run-time. See environment variables below.

Q) DMesa is so SLOOOW! The Win32 OpenGL performs so much better...
A) Is that a question? If you have a 3dfx Voodoo (any model), you're
lucky (check http://sourceforge.net/projects/glide for the DJGPP port).
If you haven't, sorry; everything is done in software.

Q) I tried to set refresh rate w/ DMesa, but without success.
A) Refresh rate control works only for VESA 3.0 and the 3dfx driver (in
which case FX_GLIDE_REFRESH will be overwritten if it is defined and
is not 0).

Q) I made a simple application and it does nothing. It exits right away. Not
even a blank screen.
A) Software drivers (VESA/VGA/NUL) must to be constructed as single-buffered
visuals. However, DMesaSwapBuffers must be called to get any output.
A) Another weird "feature" is that buffer width must be multiple of 8 (I'm a
lazy programmer and I found that the easiest way to keep buffer handling
at peak performance ;-).

Q) I'm getting a "bad font!" fatal error.
A) Always use GLUT_STROKE_* and GLUT_BITMAP_* constants when dealing with
GLUT fonts. If you're using `glut.dxe', then make sure GLUT_STROKE_* and
GLUT_BITMAP_* are mapped to integer constants, not to the actual font
address (same mechanism used for Win32 _DLL).

Q) What is NUL driver good for, if I don't get any output at all?
A) For debugging. The NUL driver is very much like OSMesa. Everything is
done just the same as VESA/VGA drivers, only it doesn't touch your video
hardware. You can query the actual buffer by issuing:
DMesaGetIntegerv(DMESA_GET_BUFFER_ADDR, &buffer);
and dump it to a file.

Q) How do I query for a list of available video modes to choose as a visual?
A) This is an ugly hack, for which I'm sure I'll burn in hell.
First, query for a list of modes:
n = DMesaGetIntegerv(DMESA_GET_VIDEO_MODES, NULL);
If `n' is strictly positive, you allocate an array of pointers to a given
struct (which is guaranteed to be extended only - not changed in future):
struct {
int xres, yres;
int bpp;
} **l = malloc(n * sizeof(void *));
Now pass the newly allocated buffer to fill in:
DMesaGetIntegerv(DMESA_GET_VIDEO_MODES, (GLint *)l);
And collect the info:
for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
printf("%dx%d:%d\n", l[i]->xres, l[i]->yres, l[i]->bpp);
}

Q) The GLUT is incomplete.
A) See below.



libGLUT (the toolkit):
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Well, this "skeletal" GLUT implementation was taken from AllegGL project and
heavily changed. Thanks should go to Bernhard Tschirren, Mark Kilgard, Brian
Paul and probably others (or probably not ;-). GLUT functionality will be
extended only on an "as needed" basis.

GLUT talks to hardware via PC_HW package which was put together from various
pieces I wrote long time ago. It consists from the keyboard, mouse and timer
drivers.

My keyboard driver used only scancodes; as GLUT requires ASCII values for keys,
I borrowed the translation tables (and maybe more) from Allegro -- many thanks
to Shawn Hargreaves et co. Ctrl-Alt-Del (plus Ctrl-Alt-End, for Windows users)
will shut down the GLUT engine unconditionally: it will raise SIGINT, which in
turn will (hopefully) call the destructors, thus cleaning up your/my mess ;-)
NB: since the DJGPP guys ensured signal handlers won't go beyond program's
space (and since dynamic modules shall) the SIGINT can't be hooked (well, it
can, but it is useless), therefore you must live with the 'Exiting due to
signal SIGINT' message...

The mouse driver is far from complete (lack of drawing, etc), but is enough to
make almost all the demos work. Supports the CuteMouse WheelAPI.

The timer is pretty versatile for it supports multiple timers with different
frequencies. While not being the most accurate timer in the known universe, I
think it's OK. Take this example: you have timer A with a very high rate, and
then you have timer B with very low rate compared to A; now, A ticks OK, but
timer B will probably loose precision!

As an addition, stdout and stderr are redirected and dumped upon exit. This
means that `printf' can be safely called during graphics. A bit of a hack, I
know, because all messages come in bulk, but I think it's better than nothing.
"Borrowed" from LIBRHUTI (Robert Hoehne).

Window creating defaults: (0, 0, 300, 300), 16bpp. However, the video mode is
chosen in such a way that first window will fit. If you need high resolution
with small windows, set initial position far to the right (or way down); then
you can move them back to any position right before the main loop.



Environment variables:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
DMESA_NULDRV - (any value) force NUL driver
GLUT_FPS - print frames/second statistics to stderr
MESA_NO_SSE - (any value) safe option under pure DOS
DMESA_GLUT_REFRESH - set vertical screen refresh rate (VESA3)
DMESA_GLUT_BPP - set default bits per pixel (VGA needs 8)
DMESA_GLUT_ALPHA - set default alpha bits (8)
DMESA_GLUT_DEPTH - set default depth bits (16)
DMESA_GLUT_STENCIL - set default stencil bits (8)
DMESA_GLUT_ACCUM - set default accum bits (16)

GGIMesa for LibGGI 2.x

Requirements:
-------------
LibGGI 2.0 or greater

Installation:
-------------
To install GGIMesa, follow the instructions in INSTALL.GNU. If you
wish to install GGIGLUT as well, first install GGIMesa and then run

make
make install (must be root)

in ggi/ggiglut.

Notes:
------

* Set the environment variables GGIMESA_DEBUG and/or GGIGLUT_DEBUG
to 255 to see lots of debugging output.

* GGIGLUT contains support for all of the GLUT 3.6 API except for the
high-level primitive drawing functions, but many of the functions (in
particular the menu drawing functions) are just stubs.

Mesa 3.0 for LynxOS builds in the following way:

make lynxos

This will build all the libraries and demo applications. You should have
around 400 megabytes free for everything since everything is done with
static
libraries.

Before using this make file however, you should perform the following
actions:
0) cd to the Mesa-3.0 directory
1) Copy the GL directory under the include directory to /usr/include.
2) Copy the files in the lib directory to /lib.
3) Make links so that the Mesa libraries look like ordinary OpenGL
libraries
in /lib. This is important for compatibility with other OpenGL apps. This
is done as follows:

cd /lib
ln -s libMesaGL.a libGL.a
ln -s libMesaGLU.a libGLU.a

Mesa 3.0 includes the GLUT (GL Utility Toolkit) by default.
The demo applications are done using this toolkit.

Mesa makefiles for building their apps could be used as well, but the
following one is much more concise. Note that the order of the X libraries
is important to the linker so that all symbols get resolved correctly.
Changing the order may result in having to list a library twice to make
sure all linkages are made correctly.

----cut here for Makefile -----

FILES = your_app.x

----cut here for Makefile-----

I have tested Mesa under LynxOS 3.0 and 3.01. It should build fine under
other
versions as well. Note, however, that LynxOS versions prior to 3.0 are not
binary compatible, so you will have to rebuild from source.

README for port of Mesa 3.x to XFree86 on OS/2 (X/2)
(as of 19990514)


Contents:

1) Binary release
2) Building from sources
3) History
4) Todo
5) Mesa Home Page


1) Binary release

Though the Mesa sources should build in a quite reasonable time even on
a 585 class machine a binary relase is available (check topic 4) for an URL)
This package includes:

- lib/MesaGL.dll, MesaGL.a
- lib/MesaGLU.dll, MesaGLU.a
- lib/glut.dll, glut.a
- include/GL/*.h

Installing this in your XFree86 tree will enable you to build and
run all applications compatible with Mesa (and the current DLL
interface, of course ;-)
As usual the OMF-style libraries can be created using emxomf.
(e.g. "emxomf foo.a" creates the foo.lib omf-style library).
The static libraries are rarely used and you have to rebuild
Mesa to get them. They're a supported target, so you get
them in a straightforward way (see below).

The testing of these libraries was limited to the supplied
demos/examples and a quite small number of third-party apps.
No warranty ... as usual ... ;-)


2) Instructions to build Mesa 3.x for XFree86/OS2 from sources:

Except the official Mesa source distribution you need:
- a recent version of XFree86 (3.3.x or above) including
the programming libraries
- EMX 0.9c (0.9d might work, never checked)
- GNU make
- REXX (!)

The creation of the DLLs as well as of the static libraries
(if you want to have them) is handled in "mklib-emx.cmd",
a small REXX script. Perhaps not the best idea, but this
way it fits best in the scheme used to build libraries
on all platforms in Mesa 3.x.

To actually build the libraries and demos, check mklib-emx.cmd
and modify it as desired. Then type
make os2-x11
and wait for completion ;-)


3) History

Initially Darren Abbott (abbott@hiwaay.net) ported Mesa versions 2.x
to XFree86 OS/2. This port might still be available from
http://fly.HiWAAY.net/~abbott/xfree86-os2/xfree86.html

The current port picked up things during the beta test for 3.0.
No major changes in the source were done. The build mechanism under OS/2
has been made very similar to other platforms (if you treat mklib-emx.cmd
as a "black box").
Advantage is that X/2 is now a valid target and all files are
integrated in the official source distribution.
Disadvantage is that this port (i.e. the DLLs' interface itself) is
definitly NOT COMPATIBLE to those of version 2.x.
It's uncertain whether this would be at all possible but since there
a _very_ few those apps it's not worth to find out anyway.
Also some libs (MesaTK, MesaAUX) are withdrawn from the Mesa distribution,
and accordingly from the OS/2 port.

4) Todo

By now binary compatiblity is ensured by using the function names
as entry points instead of ordinals. This might cost performance and
is subject to change in future. In addition the supplied X86 assembler
source is not used yet.

5) Mesa Home Page

You can get the source code and more information about Mesa from
http://www.mesa3d.org/

The OS/2 ports should be available from
http://r350.ee.ntu.edu.tw/~hcchu/os2/ports

This is a port of the GL and GLU libraries to NeXT/Apple object
orientated systems. As these systems have their own window handling
systems we simply use the offscreen rendering capability of Mesa
to generate bitmaps which may then be displayed by the application
with a View as required. Example pieces of code may be found in the
OpenStep directory.

Sadly there are now a proliferation of different system that we need to
support compilation for: The original NextStep system, The OpenStep
system, the Rhapsody/Mac OS X system and also the windows implementations
of the latter two systems. This version of the code has been compiled and
tested under the following architectures:

NextStep 3.3
OpenStep 4.2
Rhapsody DR2
WebObjects for NT 3.5
WebObjects for NT 4.0

All tests were done with Intel processors. Feedback on other systems would,
however, be appreciated !

On UNIX systems simply type "make openstep". Under Windows systems
with WebObjects run the "win32-openstep.sh" script from within the Bourne
shell provided with the development environment. In both cases this will
build the libraries and place them into the "lib" directory. Some examples
may be found in the OpenStep directory showing how to use the code in an
actual application (MesaView) as well as some command line demos.

The CC variable may be specified on the command line for doing such things
as building FFAT libraries or using alternative compilers to the standard 'cc'
e.g. make CC='cc -arch m68k -arch i386' openstep" will build the libraries
with both intel and motorola architectures.

WindML Driver for Mesa 4.0


Requirements
------------

Tornado 2 + WindML, Cumulative Patchs are recommended.
I suppose you have a valid WindML installation. Double buffer hardware
gives better performance than double buffer software so if you can
compile your WindML driver with this option, just do it. I/O
redirection is adviced in target server.


Tested on
---------

During the development, my main target was a CoolMonster:
- Video card: CT69000
- CPU: PENTIUM 266MHz

and my host a Windows NT + Tornado 2.


Installation
------------

1. Mesa sources must be in root directory (C:\)

2. Add the following line to your torVars.bat:
set MESA_BASE=C:\Mesa

OR copy the new torVars.bat in your bin path:
c:/Mesa/src/ugl/tornado/torVars.sample ->
/mnt/nt/Tornado/host/x86-win32/bin/torVars (for example)

3. In a command prompt:
$ torVars
$ cd c:\Mesa
$ make -f Makefile.ugl CPU=PENTIUM

Take a long while...

5. Include all the files from ugldemos folder to build some downloadable
application modules

4. Download UGL/Mesa object files on target

For example via the WindShell:
ld < c:\Tornado\target\lib\objMesaGL.o
ld < c:\Tornado\target\lib\objMesaUGL.o
ld < c:\Tornado\target\lib\objMesaGLU.o
ld < c:\Tornado\target\lib\objGLUTshapes.o
ld < c:\Tornado\target\lib\objMesaOS.o

You can put the previous lines in a file and use:
< filename

6. Download the application modules.

7. In WindShell, run:
-> uglalldemos

During the show some messages will appear, it provides some useful
information on key management.


Coding
------

Sample Usage:

In addition to the usual ugl calls to initialize UGL, (may be find an
input driver), you must do the following to use the UGL/Mesa interface:

1. Call uglMesaCreateContext() to create a UGL/Mesa rendering context,
given the display format.

2. Call uglMesaMakeCurrent() to bind the UGL/Mesa buffers to an
UGL/Mesa Context and to make the context the current one.

3. Make gl* calls to render your graphics.

4. Use uglMesaSwapBuffers() when double buffering to swap front/back buffers.

5. Before the UGL is destroyed, call MesaDestroyContext().

6. Before exiting, call if required uglEventQDestroy and then
uglDeinitialize();

Limitations
-----------

I found the following limitations in my driver :
- Color Indexed management is only in 8 bits
- It's possible to mix UGL/OpenGL application with a software
double buffer

Modifications
------------
