Introduction

Mesa is an open-source implementation of the OpenGL specification. OpenGL is a programming library for writing interactive 3D applications.

Installed version

The currently installed versions are

On environment hpc-env/6.4
Mesa/17.2.5-foss-2017b
Mesa/17.2.5-GCCcore-6.4.0
Mesa/17.3.6-intel-2018a
Mesa/18.1.1-GCCcore-6.4.0
Mesa/19.0.1-GCCcore-6.4.0 (D)
Mesa/19.1.4-GCCcore-6.4.0

Using Mesa

You can load Mesa by changing into the corresponding environment and loading the module:

module load hpc-env/6.4
module load Mesa

But since Mesa is more of a supportive software package, you probably won't need to load the module individually. It is much more likely that Mesa is loaded automatically alongisde other modules as a dependency. For example, this is the case if you want to use FDTD-Solutions . If you load the Module FDTD-Solutions, Mesa will be loaded automatically as a dependency.
