Donwload from http://www.mesa3d.org/ MesaLib and MesaDemos and if can't
succeed compile bounce.c
ask for help on mesa-users mailing list will be more appropriated.

To know the status of Mesa on cygwin and Mesa on windows, ask on
mesa-users mailing list, will be more appropriated but I think cygwin is
"out of date" . 

"that will allow using 12-bit pseudocolor on hardware that 
otherwise would not support it (as well as greyscales and other visuals 
other than real color).  This is a very important issue with my work.

Also, I believe I read that it will support "layers"(?)......overlays! 
The 
ability to combine images with different visualials, so I an have a
photo 
using real color and have a gui control or whatever using 12-bit
pseudocolor 
simultaneously.  I'm assuming this is also supported through software 
emulation."

Mesa supports visuals with pseudocolor, even gray scales, at least had
supported. But X can only use one colorMap at same time, I think, and
this experiences has been made on year 1995/96. ( to see one photo on
gray-scale, all window becomes in gray scale ) 

Once again this questions will be more proper on Mesa-users mailing
list.
