Whoah... how did you get Quake3 to work on your Voodoo3 ?? I can only get
it to pop up in a window, and run at about 1 fpm (yes, frame per minute).
The Quake3 docs say that you need to run the X server in 15 or 16 bpp for
the Voodoo3, but the Voodoo3 X server says it does not support 15 or 16
bpp... Please let me know your configuration, and how you got it to work!
thanks,
