Hi,

Start by making sure that the tdfx module is loaded. Also, make sure the 
lines Load "glx" and Load "dri" appear in the Module section of your 
XF86Config.

That's why i'm confused, I am loading glx and dri in my config file, the tdfx module is loaded, and xdpyinfo shows me
GLX, SGI-GLX, and XFree86-DRI

You're using the wrong libGL.so.  If you've got the right one for DRI it
will say GL_VENDOR = Precision Insight, Inc.
