I just picked up a copy of the Linux version of Myth2 and haven't been able
to get it to work.  There are two issues currently, both Glide-related and
both ignored by the 3Dfx-HOWTO:

1)  I got the 3Dfx and Glide drivers from linux.3dfx.com, used alien to
convert their rpms to debs, and installed them.  Their test program 
(test3Dfx) runs fine for root, but segfaults if a normal user tries to run
it.  Their site suggests that you try running it both as root and as a normal
user, but doesn't say anything about how to troubleshoot it if it doesn't
work for non-root users.  Any suggestions on how to get that working?

2)  When I try to start up Myth2 (whether as root or not) it dies because it
can't open libglide2x.so.  Both the Glide2 and Glide3 packages from
linux.3dfx.com include libglide3x.so.  Where can I find a libglide2x?
