Not a single idea. I suppose it's the agpgart stuff, but I'm a no kernel

I don't understand your question.
On XFree-3.3.6 with a Voodoo3 on a k6-2/300 here I get 20/25 fps. I
suppose the Mesa accelerated is for 3dfx-1 (max for 3dfx-2, but I think
not for 3dfx-3) ; and also it's not DRI ; so we could get better
performance.

I heard someplace that it's not always faster with 4.0 ; but could not
test by myself.
