Hi!
First of all, i do not know about a port for V55k,
so take a look at Xfree86.org. Hm, heard from some people, the svga x-server runs with it!

To get 3d, to play quake3, you have to install
the linux_base-6.1.tgz and install the linux_libaries!

# pkg_add -v linux_base-6.1.tgz
# rpm2cpio *.rpm | cpio -i --make-directories

(run as root, coz the 3dfx device-driver doesn't run
under freebsd)


If you are using Xfree86 4.0, i can't help you with this,
coz it implements an own render engine!

For more information look at:
