Heh. Sucks, don't it? I emailed Netraverse about that, and 2.4 support will be available before WinME is supported. :)

No, read more about X4. While you don't need 3dfx.o, the X server will try to load tdfx.o for a V3. For this, you need DRI enabled as a module in your kernel. You don't need AGPGART, since the 3Dfx cards of this generation don't use AGP texturing.
