    <title>Installation of MesaLib</title>

    <para>If you've installed the X Windows System into any prefix other than
    <filename class="directory">/usr/X11R6</filename>, then execute the
    following commands to correct several assumptions made in the distributed
    tarball.  Be sure to replace '[prefix]' with the installation prefix of
    your installed X Windows System:</para>

<screen><userinput>find . -type f -exec sed -i 's@/usr/X11R6@<replaceable>[prefix]</replaceable>@g' {} \;</userinput></screen>

    <para>Install <application>MesaLib</application> 
    by running the following commands:</para>

<screen><userinput>make linux-dri</userinput></screen>

    <para>This package does not come with a test suite.</para>

    <para>Now, as the <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user:</para>

<screen role="root"><userinput>bin/installmesa <replaceable>[prefix]</replaceable>&amp;&amp;
mkdir -p <replaceable>[prefix]</replaceable>/lib/modules/dri
install -v -o root -m 0755 lib/*dri* <replaceable>[prefix]</replaceable>/lib/modules/dri</userinput></screen>

    <para>Now if you've extracted the GLUT and Demos packages as well, then 
    build the test programs with the following commands:</para>

<screen><userinput>cd progs/xdemos &amp;&amp;
make PROGS='glxinfo glxgears'</userinput></screen>

    <para>Install the demos as the root user:</para>

<screen role="root"><userinput>install -v -o root -m 0755 glxinfo glxgears <replaceable>[prefix]</replaceable>/bin</userinput></screen>

    <note><para>If building Xorg-7.0<!--<xref linkend="xorg7"/>-->, do not 
    remove the Mesa source tree yet, it will be required to build the 
    xserver.</para></note>
