Hi!

I read this at the Allegro Mailing list. (Is the BEST DOS game - graphic,sound,joystick,config-file etc - library for C/C++) and think, that it is a very 
good news!!!!

So I thought I should post it on "my main mailinglists" :-)

Much fun!!

The title says it all. I have updated the driver (called AMesa) that
Bernhard Tschirren wrote 2 years ago to use Mesa with Allegro and I have
written the code to use AllegroGL with AMesa.
You can download the patches at my web page
http://perso.club-internet.fr/bcoconni
It consists of a zip archive which contains two other archive files. You
have to unzip them respectively over the main directory of Mesa and
AllegroGL, you compile and that's all.

The interesting thing is that this code does not use any DOS routines,
it only calls some Allegro and OpenGL functions and can be easily ported
to any platform Mesa and Allegro can support : so far, I have
successfully use this architecture (AllegroGL + Allegro + Mesa + driver
AMesa) under DOS and Linux without GLX ! (makefiles for Linux are not
provided)
Also note that it uses a software implementation of OpenGL and that it
is an alpha release.

For more info, see the readme.txt

I don't know if some people is interested by using AllegroGL under DOS
but I have had much fun in coding that stuff. Any comments are welcome,
I am not a DOS specialist and some LOCK_* macros may have to be added or
removed, just tell me...

		Bertrand.
