3D acceleration library for 3Dfx graphics cards.  The glide version I'm
running is specifically for the 3Dfx/Banshee and 3Dfx/3

<mesa root>/ggi/demos
(requires ggi/ggiglut)
make 'gears' should work.

The demos are made to require libglut.   Which is designed to work with X.
Now ggiglut is a replacement for some programs - but a poor one.

current CVS.  I keep up a lot.

No.  KGI doesn't support 3Dfx/Banshee.
And isn't even potentially 3d-accelerated for my hardware in any event so
it's uninteresting to me at this time.
(now if I could convince Mesa that my glide didn't require X support, I'd
be happier)

G'day, eh? :)
