Just tested again with Intrepid and a Voodoo Banshee (PCI), Voodoo3 2000
(PCI), and a Voodoo3 3000 (AGP).  OpenArena and Tremulous both fail if
most any video setting is changed.  When the settings are changed in
either game they go through a shutdown (switching back to the desktop)
then a re-init (SDL_Init) process.  Tremulous never loads the GUI at
this point while OpenArena loads to a corrupted screen.  After the
failures Tremulous CPU usage is at about 50% while OpenArena is near 90%
(both normal for this K6-2 500MHz system).  When killed from a terminal
both seem to have an orderly shutdown.  Chromium (non-Quake related)
works normally except for some graphics anomalies with the "sound fx
volume" menu item.  rss_glx screensavers are normal (i.e. ugly by most
modern video card standards).

Note:  I'm passing the 3dfx cards I have off to someone on the mesa
mailing list so I won't be able to provide more info or test results
than the logs I'm attaching now.
