You can download Linux Glide rasterization library from 3Dfx's own
websiet along with the Glide Programming Manual and Glide Reference Manual
in PDF format. There is also a link from the same page to get Adove
Acrobat reader to allowtyou to read PDF files:
http://www.3dfx.com/software/download_glidel.html
^
Dont forget the l in the URL

3Dfx setup a news server (news.3dfx.com) and you should refer all
the rest of your questions to the newsgroups on there.

For OpenGL you want to take a look at Mesa...a free implementation
of OpenGL. It compiles under Linux and supports hardware rendering on
the 3Dfx through the Glide libs. THe URL for this:
http://www.ssec.wisc.edu/~brianp/Mesa.html

You can direct all of your questions about mesa to the Mesa
mailing list described on the Mesa homepage.


Happy Glide coding...
Phil
