an apparent 180 on the whole open source issue. Good for them. =>

Just a day or two ago I got email from Andrew (not Apted) telling me the
drivers were open source now just in case I hadn't found out already (I
had) and apologizing for ke
t believed me, but 3dfx has been very accomidating since I started
talking to them at the end of August. They've taken their time about
actually doing it, but this whole "Free Software" thing seems to be a
concept their suits don't understand, so it's taking them awhile
I've had mail issues of late, anything I've sent the past week hasn't gone

Was full glide source and register specs "big news" enough for everyone?

There is a GGI Glide target, but it's 2D. What's wanted is accellerated
hardware 3D.. Something that CAN render 3 scr
a is supposed to have kickass drivers. Eventually. The only stable
drivers you can get now are for 3.3.5 and older X servers and they're so
slow you'll wonder if you're actually getting accelleration at all.
nVidia has not earned a reputation for cooperation with the community
which disappear quickly.. Unfortunately I'm also no artist.

GGIMesa is unaccellerated. That means it's completely useless from a
practical OpenGL developer's viewpoint.
