This is definitely a Mesa problem, other, non-plib apps have the same problem -- 
approximately the top inch of the screen is black when in 3Dfx mode on my 
Voodoo 2.  I guess the new Mesa fixes were tested on Voodoo 3, Banshee, or 
Voodoo 5.  :(   I guess I will stick to Mesa 3.2 until the next release comes out.
