Probably.  Are you using the drm from the kernel or from the DRI tree?  The
one in the DRI tree is the best one to use, especially if you are using the
DRI X server.  Which X server are you using?

>Also, when I start X here is the output concerning DRI/DRM:
<snip>
>(II) TDFX(0): direct rendering enabled

This means that it has loaded and enabled the DRI... So your kernel part is
probably correct.

This should be OK.

>And here is the output of me running quake3 with the command:
>/usr/local/games/quake3/quake3.x86 +set r_smp 1

Try /usr/local/games/quake3/quake3.x86 +set r_smp 0 +set r_gldriver
/usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so
