<H1>Supported Systems and Drivers</H1>
<p>
-Mesa was originally designed for Unix/X11 systems and is still best
-supported on those systems. All you need is an ANSI C compiler and the
-X development environment to use Mesa.
+Mesa is primarily developed and used on Linux systems.
+But there's also support for Windows, other flavors of Unix and other
+systems such as Haiku.
+We're actively developing and maintaining several hardware and
+software drivers.
</p>
<p>
-The DRI hardware drivers for the X.org server and XFree86 provide
-hardware accelerated rendering for chips from ATI, Intel, and NVIDIA
-on Linux and FreeBSD.
+The primary API is OpenGL but there's also support for OpenGL ES 1
+and ES 2, OpenVG and the EGL interface.
</p>
<p>
-Drivers for other assorted platforms include:
-the Apple Macintosh and Windows.
+Hardware drivers include:
</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Intel i965, i945, i915.
+ See <a href="http://intellinuxgraphics.org/index.html" target="_parent">
+ Intel's website</a>
+<li>AMD Radeon series
+<li>Some NVIDIA GPus.
+<li>VMware virtual GPU
+</ul>
<p>
-Details about particular drivers follows:
+Software drivers include:
+</p>
+<ul>
+<li><a href="llvmpipe.html">llvmpipe</a> - uses LLVM for x86 JIT code
+ generation and is multi-threaded
+<li>softpipe - a reference Gallium driver
+<li>swrast - the legacy/original Mesa software rasterizer

+In the past there were other drivers for older GPUs and operating

+These have been removed from the Mesa source tree and distribution.
+If anyone's interested though, the code can be found in the git repo.

<h1>VMware guest GL driver</h1>
<p>
-This page describes how to build, install and use the VMware guest GL driver
+This page describes how to build, install and use the
+<a href="http://www.vmware.com/" target="_parent">VMware</a> guest GL driver
(aka the SVGA or SVGA3D driver) for Linux using the latest source code.
This driver gives a Linux virtual machine access to the host's GPU for
hardware-accelerated 3D.
