Just so you don't end up wasting your time.... Glide is strictly a 3Dfx low level 3D video driver library which talks directly to 3Dfx Voodoo and Banshee video hardware. Glide 2 is for Voodoo Graphics I/II hardware, and Glide3 is for Voodoo 3/4/5 and Banshee hardware. Glide does not work on any other video hardware, and is totally useless unless you have 3Dfx video hardware, in which case it provides the layer between DRI and the 3Dfx video card for 3D acceleration. In short: You've got an SiS video card, and Glide is meaningless as far as your system is concerned. -- Mike A.
