simple.
3dfx cards support GLIDE v3 under Xfree86 4.x
3dfx cards support GLIDE v2 under Xfree86 3.x
3dfx cards support OPENGL under Xfree86 4.x
virtually all games/apps that use glide use glide v2(i've yet to hear of one
that uses glide 3)
at one point i heard that 3dfx planned to support glide2 in xfree4 but that
never happened
and probably never will now.
im a happy 3dfx user with xf86 3.3.6 on kernel 2.2.18
