If you have a Voodoo Card, please let me know whether it is Voodoo1,
2, Rush or whatever. I assume there are many more V1 folks around, but
need proof. Also, nowaday's Xi has OpenGL drivers for other cards, so
Voodoo isn't the only option now. Anyone did try this with Quake?

I have some time to work on the 3d-related ports, amoung them
emulators/linux_glide. This currently installs a Voodoo1-only shared
library. It doesn't run on a V2 and a V2 lib doesn't run on a
V1. Nice.

The Voodoo 1 Linux stuff is much nicer anyway, it has everything you
need including header files and some test programs in one nice
.tar.gz, while the newer stuff is rpm and to get the header files you
have to download a 3MB SDK with lots of useless stuff.

Opinions?

Martin
