<p>Hi,<br>
</p>
<p>I had set these variables when the result was as originally
described.</p>
<p>For information, I used <font face="FreeMono">--prefix=/opt/mesa</font>
during configure and then <font face="FreeMono">sudo make install</font>
after compilation. I then used <font face="FreeMono">export
LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH=/opt/mesa/lib/dri</font> and <font
face="FreeMono">export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/mesa/lib</font>.</p>

I would like to build/install a different version of Mesa on my
system
<br>
to trial it (i.e. without completely installing it in place of
the
<br>
currently installed version). Is this possible?
<br>
<br>
I am currently running Ubuntu 16.10 x64.

I found this information

<br>
and followed most of it (I downloaded the version I wanted
(12.0.6)
<br>
rather than git clone). It compiled fine etc. However, when I
execute
<br>
glxinfo in terminal, the output is not as expected. For
example, the
<br>
max core profile version is stated as "0.0" and the OpenGL
version
<br>
string is "2.1 Mesa 12.0.6". For my hardware, I would expect
this to be
<br>
"3.3" and "3.0 Mesa 12.0.6" respectively.
<br>
<br>
Could anyone point me in the right direction to get this
working?

You probably just need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH and
LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH to point to the newly compiled libs.
