It follows the structure of Daryll Strauss'es code OK, but when glide is initialising, after getting the number of cards, it tries to pass a structure for some I/O which has some garbage values in it. I don't know if the structure is packed differently or what. Most frustrating. If I can beat this shim into shape, then we can have hardware accelerated OpenGL while I tinker with the device driver. Grrr. Have a Voodoo 1 myself. Am also waiting for someone else to do the mtrr code for AMD K6-2s. Stephen > -- The views expressed above are not those of PGS Tensor.
