Hello,

I have quake2 and 3dfx, and canot play it with mouse under svgalib mode either....

But i have a question for you.... i can play quake with 3dfx support as root. And all
the Opengl (mesa) things too. But i want to use 3dfx as a normal user....
What should i do?  Maybe create somthing like /dev/3dfx ??\







thanks,
