you don't need the device3dfx-source package with xfree4. your
xfree86config-4 should contain something like that:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Voodoo3"
Driver "tdfx"
EndSection
Section "Module"
Load "dri"
Load "glx"
[...]
EndSection
Section "DRI"
Mode 0666
EndSection
when you start x, the log should show some tdfx-infos.
you need to have libglide3 and xlibmesa3 installed. if you do a
glxinfo it's output should look like that:
name of display: :0.0
display: :0 screen: 0
direct rendering: Yes
server glx vendor string: SGI
server glx version string: 1.2
server glx extensions:
GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_EXT_import_context
client glx vendor string: SGI
client glx version string: 1.2
client glx extensions:
GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_EXT_import_context
GLX extensions:
GLX_EXT_visual_info, GLX_EXT_visual_rating, GLX_EXT_import_context
OpenGL vendor string: VA Linux Systems, Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Voodoo3 20010501 x86/MMX
OpenGL version string: 1.2 Mesa 3.4.2
OpenGL extensions:
[...]
everything should work now (hopefully).
hope that helps.
