Thank you for this tip. The tests are now ok !
Where does the message "video memory unprotecting" come from ? How to
remove it ?
I have tried some GLUT demos. Few demos use mouse and menus are not
visible in 3DFX screen. The Readme say it's possible to render into an X
window with the help of the Voodoo 1 hardware with :
export MESA_GLX_FX="window" // to enable window rendering
export SST_VGA_PASS=1 // to stop video signal switching
export SST_NOSHUTDOWN=1 // to stop video signal switching
or voodoo 2 hardware with
export SSTV2_VGA_PASS=1 // to stop video signal switching
export SSTV2_NOSHUTDOWN=1 // to stop video signal switching
But nothing for voodoo 3 hardware ...
How to do that with a voodoo 3 hardware ?
