I'm trying to compile glide for slackware 11.0 & voodoo3 3000 PCI.
However i run to problems;
This is what i have done:
1. checkout glide devel branch

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@glide.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/glide login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@glide.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/glide co -P glid
e3x
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@glide.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/glide logout

2. Moved swlibs under glide3x
3. Tried to compile(according to INSTALL file);

aclocal && automake && autoconf

while doing autoconf following warnings comes(showing just part of them):

/usr/share/aclocal/xmms.m4:17: warning: underquoted definition of XMMS_TEST_VERSION
 run info '(automake)Extending aclocal'
 or see http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Extending-aclocal

/usr/share/aclocal/gdk-pixbuf.m4:12: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_GDK_PIXBUF


when doing

% mkdir build
% cd build
% ../configure --enable-fx-glide-hw=h3 --enable-fx-build-dri

.. I get following error:

...
checking for strdup... yes
checking for strstr... yes
checking for strtoul... yes
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating build.3dfx
config.status: error: cannot find input file: makefile.autoconf.in



If I then try to run make it fails somewhere under minihwc directory..


What is wrong?
Why does not the glide compile?
Acording to CVS logs someone has made changes to code, so i guess it should be possible to compile it even it is not widely used anymore..

I dont know anything about cvs and "gnu autotools" which are used in process, should I..?

Could someone please guide me how to compile this so i could get my hw working..?

I tried to contact Daniel but get no reply.

I guess th problem is just finding Mesa version (enough old) which will compile against my precompiled glide libraries.(either glide3 or glide2)

Someone must have a mesa version lying in somewhere which is enough old.
I searched the Mesa web site but I think all versions there are too new!?

Anyone, could you please give some pointers where to find such a mesa..?

HI

My intention is to set up my voodoo3 3000 to function in linux in a way that i can play opengl games hw accelerated. (ie ustunts )

To accomplish this i assume i need to compile glide2x and mesafx

But how is this done?

I downloaded glide3x from sourceforge but I only made it to compile by making a lot modifications to make files some .c files and to configure.in. Probably some functionlity was lost due to this..
After that i read from somewhere net that voodoo3 and mesafx need glide2x to work, so i'm back at the starting point.

Is it true that voodoo3 % mesafx combination works only with glide2x?
If yes, Where can i get glide2x for linux? I could not find it from anywhere.

What's the story with libSage?
I tried to just link my game against it but it gave me few unresolved symbols.. I also tried to just modify LD_xx env variable like instructed but the game did not take library in use..

It seems to be quite difficult to live with voodoo board and linux nowadays..
