I get everything... unpack it... works fine in softx... but after experiencing GL anything you dont want software, now do you?

Try running *any* GL library... this is what i get...
------- initilization -------
sound sampling rate: 11025
------------------------------------
==== ShutdownGame ====
Server was killed.

------- sound initialization -------
sound sampling rate: 11025
------------------------------------
]quit
Couldn't write config.cfg.
recursive shutdown



Well, anyhow... i tried killing gpm as i saw in one troubleshooting guide... i upgraded my SVGALib... nothing... i have seen just about every troubleshooting guide now.... still nothing... any help?

Works fine... in software mode... Open GL works... but its slower than *1* frame per 5 seconds... Im using a Radeon... PCI... bah, Tryed to use DRI... but it seems to only work with AGP cards, or something... Any way to get video card support for the Radeon under linux for a PCI card? Or would i be better of buying a PCI GeForce... (note: my pos box doesnt have an agp slot)
