Voodoo3 and 3D stuff



Hello all,

Ok, I'm at my wits end (didn't take long).  I cannot get full screen 3D
stuff working on my Debian 2.2 box with a Voodoo3 2000.  I need help.  I
do have it working on this same box using a different distribution, so I
know it *can* work.  Here's what I've done:
1.  Installed all the mesa and glide stuff that I can find on the CDs
keeping an eye out for 3dfx and voodoo3.  Anyone know specifically what
I need?
2.  I have device3dfx.deb installed but can do nothing with it (what do
I do with it?)
3.  I have /dev/3dfx with the proper permissions.
4.  I installed and compiled the mesa demos and get the following error
(after setting the MESA_GLX_whatever to fullscreen) "gd error (glide):
Can't find or access Banshee/V3 board" (even as root). 
5.  Ok, in Unreal Tournament on my other distribution I used the setting
for the GlideRender device and it worked perfectly.  It segfaults on
Debian.  Using the SDLGLDrv gets UT to start, but the mouse moves once
every 5 seconds and no video comes up and when I manage to tell it to
load a game it segfaults.

I guess I need fairly explicit directions on what to do. Sorry. 

Thanks,
David Bellows
