Hi all, I'm trying to set up Quake II to work with my Voodoo II card under FreeBSD-CURRENT. Right now, it only displays a blank screen. Here's what I did: 1. Make world, build new kernel. Everything's cool. 2. Install linux_libs, linux_devel, linux_mesa, and linux_glide ports. 3. 'test-glide' from linux_glide doesn't work; I then read on DejaNews that it only works on Voodoo 1 boards and I need to get the latest Linux glide distribution (2.53) which is supposed to work fine. 4. I do this; after extracting it from the .rpm (like pulling teeth) I replace libglide2x.so and libtexus.so from /usr/compat/linux/usr/lib with new ones, and install test3Dfx over test-glide. 5. The new test-glide (test3Dfx) works; it shows me a nice spinning 3Dfx logo. 6. Quake II does not; setting it to load with glide and Mesa sends me to a black screen that I can't get out of (Voodoo 2 has taken over the video signal). CTRL-ALT-F1; login as root (blindly), reboot. What am I doing wrong here? Has anyone else gotten this to work?
