Okay,
I should have known i was asking for that one !!
I got it installed after an evening of RPM installing and package building.
I can't remember exactly how or where at the moment - i'm at work, but at
home i have all the instrauctions printed off including the URLs.
Basically there are Glide libraries for Linux and a 3Dfx module (if you want
to run a Glide app as non-root). Once you have those installed and built,
wine pretty much just ran it. I don't remember having to do any more
configuration than just the normal drive locations in the wine config (it
was the first time i'd ever used wine - previous attempts two years ago had
been pretty fruitless).
The more i think about where i got this stuff from the more i think that it
MUST have been reliant on a 3Dfx graphics card. I'll get hold of the URLs
and post them tommorrow.
Martin.
