By the same flow of logic, why don't you use windows?
I'm not quite sure. Searching their forums took me 10 minutes to get a direction for solving the problem. 10 minutes later, the problem was solved. I don't use windows for various reasons.

Offer a better alternative. I think you could still find some 3Dfx cards, maybe on e-bay, and use them. As I remember, they opened their code before the end. You could also try and use S3 graphics, but it's far from being able to compete with both NVidia's and ATI's. Matrox maybe? You could get something, not nearly as good, but for more or less, the same price. Freedom is expensive - and so are Matrox cards. > > > Not everyone (actually, only very few) bother debugging problematic code > > or software. > > But everyone should have the option. True.
