Actually, I get much better performance from my Voodoo3 with X4. For some reason Debian doesn't include the DRI Glide drivers. You can download an RPM from linux.3dfx.com. Its name Glide-v3-DRI, or something like that. Convert it to a .deb using alien and it installs fine, nearly doubling your framerate under X4. -Rob
