Make sure to read the Quake HOWTO and the Linux 3Dfx HOWTO (at
http://www.gamers.org/dEngine/xf3D/howto/3Dfx-HOWTO.html). You probably
have, but just in case...

I don't think you want the "glx" part in there. As I understand it, only
the TNT and G200 cards need that. It'll actually slow things down.
Also, make sure you've got SVGAlib configured properly - the 3Dfx driver
uses that to get the keyboard and mouse stuff...
