Steve,

(made it back to MN safely although the thunderstorms rumbling through
Dallas made a real mess of things getting out of there ... we were
about two hours late getting off the ground.  Never seen so many big
airplanes in a line.  We were lined up the entire length of the runway
with about 3 rows bottlenecking into the runway entrance.) :-(

I grabbed the latest mesa out of cvs and built it.  But, I got
software only rendering.

Anyone know how to build a libGL from mesa source that works with
XFree86-4.0 / DRI / Voodoo-3 and all of that?  The configure script
found my glide.h and libglide3.so ... but apparently there is more to
it than that.

Anyone have any tips?

Regards,

Curt.
