This is old version from 2015. This older version has **less functionality**, but it **takes up less space on the screen**, which can be useful on smaller displays.

=== GTK Mesa Tests
111+
This screen allows the user to verify whether they have a suitable and well-tuned PC for their Mesa card.
112+
113+
Based on the design of Mesa Configuration Tool II https://github.com/jethornton/mesact Copyright (c) 2022 jethornton
114+
115+
Although this screen was originally part of the configurator, it is not the configurator. It is a control system. Mesa tests uses data from a running LinuxCNC, but does not send any data to LinuxCNC, nor does it set anything. Parameter adjustment is only allowed to simulate the desired state.

Mesa Tests is a tool designed for beginners to sleep better or to know if they need to buy better hardware or tune their hardware better. It is better to use tools like Halshow or Halscope to monitor the parameters (pins,thread, ...) used. The list of parameters is displayed on the right side of the screen.
