hey, thanks for the clues...........i don't remember seeing ANY errors, just running real slow, q3 opens in a window even if i set the MESA_GLX_FX=f once t opens x is frozen with cpu maxed out, i can't even get to another vt to see if the modules loaded.......i did manually load the 3dfx module before running q3, but didn't help.......is this the DRI module you speak of? i checked my xconfig file and it says it is to load the dri module and use the tdfx server...... what documentation are you speaking of? there was nothing other than Release notes and a small README in the X directory at SuSE ftp site....and what i've been able to find at the linux quake site or the id site doesn't mention X4 or the new drivers......... thanks for the help, i will be able to play with it some more this evening, maybe get a handle on what is actually going on...... thanks again, don On Wed, 26 Apr 2000, defiance wrote:
Are you getting some kind of 'libMesaGL.so.*****' something error? If so, you may have to set up a link to the new libGL. file. I can't remember what the actual name of the file is, but it's all in the documentation. Do a little searching... It's buried in there somewhere. Other than that, no, the 2.2.13 kernel's fine with it. Oh, and if it's just running slower than expected, you just have to load the DRI kernel module, and enable DRI. That's all in the doc's too. I can't remember all the details, I'm just giving you direction... Something to search the docs for. They're kinda ambiguous unless you read almost every file available, or you know what to look for.
