Doing more with Mesa & Linux Glide:
-----------------------------------
The MESA_GLX_FX environment variable can be used to coax most
GLX-based programs into using Glide (and the __GLUT library
is GLX-based__).
Full-screen 3Dfx rendering:
---------------------------
1. Set the MESA_GLX_FX variable to "fullscreen":
ksh:
export MESA_GLX_FX = "fullscreen"
csh:
setenv MESA_GLX_FX fullscreen
2. As root, run a GLX-based program (any GLUT demo on Linux).
3. Be careful: once the 3Dfx screen appears you won't be able
to see the GLUT windows on your X display. This can make using
the mouse tricky! One solution is to hook up your 3Dfx card to
a second monitor. If you can do this then set these env vars
first:
setenv SST_VGA_PASS 1
setenv SST_NOSHUTDOWN
or for the Voodoo2:
setenv SSTV2_VGA_PASS 1
setenv SSTV2_NOSHUTDOWN
Rendering into an X window with the help of the Voodoo hardware:
----------------------------------------------------------------
1. Start your X server in 16 bpp mode (XFree86: startx -- -bpp 16)
in order to have the best performance and the best visual
quality. However you can use any visual depth supported by X.
2. Set the following environment variables:
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
setenv MESA_GLX_FX window
setenv SST_VGA_PASS 1
setenv SST_NOSHUTDOWN 1
(the Voodoo2 requires to use "SSTV2_" instead "SST_").
3. As root, try running a GLX-based program
How does it work? We use the 3Dfx hardware to do rendering then
copy the image from the 3Dfx frame buffer into an X window when
the SwapBuffers() function is called. The problem with this
idea is it's slow. The image must be copied from the 3Dfx frame
buffer to main memory then copied into the X window (and when the X
visual depth doesn't match the Voodoo framebufffer bit per pixel, it
is required also a pixel format translation).
NOTE: the in-window rendering feature only works with double-buffering.
On the fly switching between in window rendering and full screen rendering
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Mesa 2.6 has introduced the capability of switching
on-the-fly between the fullscreen/fullspeed rendering and the in-window
hack and vice versa. The on-the-fly switching requires a direct support
by the application but it is really easy to add. You have to start
your X server in 16 bpp mode and to add the following lines to your
application:
#if defined(FX) && define(XMESA)
#include <GL/xmesa.h>
static int fullscreen=1;
#endif
...
/* In the GLUT keyboard event callback */
#if defined(FX) && !define(WIN32)
case ' ':
fullscreen=(!fullscreen);
XMesaSetFXmode(fullscreen ? XMESA_FX_FULLSCREEN : XMESA_FX_WINDOW);
break;
#endif
...
See the 3Dfx/demos/tunnel.c program
for an example. You have to set the -DXMESA flag in the Makefile's COPTS
to enable it.
Rendering into an X window with the X11 software driver:
--------------------------------------------------------
Set the MESA_GLX_FX variable to "disable" your GLX-based program will use
the X11 software driver (the 3Dfx hardware isn't used at all).
Useful Glide Environment Variables:
-----------------------------------
- To disable the 3Dfx logo, set the FX_GLIDE_NO_SPLASH variable.
- To disable video signal switching:
setenv SST_VGA_PASS 1
setenv SST_NOSHUTDOWN
or for the Voodoo2:
setenv SSTV2_VGA_PASS 1
setenv SSTV2_NOSHUTDOWN
- To set the default screen refresh rate:
setenv SST_SCREENREFRESH=75
the supported values are 60, 70, 72, 75, 80, 85, 90, 100, 120.
- To force the Mesa library to swap buffers as fast as possible,
without any vertical blanking synchronization (useful for benchmarks):
setenv FX_GLIDE_SWAPINTERVAL 0
setenv SST_SWAP_EN_WAIT_ON_VIDSYNC 0
- You can slight improve the performances of your Voodoo1 board with
the following env. var.:
setenv SST_FASTMEM 1
setenv SST_PCIRD 1
setenv SST_GRXCLK 57
(don't use this setting with the Quantum3D 100SB or with any other
SLI configuration: it will hang everything !).
The following setting can be used with the Voodoo2:
setenv SSTV2_FASTMEM_RAS_READS=1
setenv SSTV2_FASTPCIRD=1
setenv SSTV2_GRXCLK=95
- The Quantum3D Obsidian3D-2 X-24 requires some special env. setting
in order to work under Linux:
export SSTV2_FT_CLKDEL=5
export SSTV2_TF0_CLKDEL=7
export SSTV2_TF1_CLKDEL=7
export SSTV2_TF2_CLKDEL=7
export SSTV2_SLIM_VIN_CLKDEL=3
export SSTV2_SLIM_VOUT_CLKDEL=2
export SSTV2_SLIS_VIN_CLKDEL=3
export SSTV2_SLIS_VOUT_CLKDEL=2
(Thanks to Phil Ross for this trick).
The Mesa/Voodoo Environment Variables:
--------------------------------------
- Only for Windows/Voodoo Rush users, if you define the
env. var. MESA_WGL_FX:
export MESA_WGL_FX=fullscreen
you will get fullscreen rendering;
- Only for Windows/Voodoo Rush users, if you define the
env. var. MESA_WGL_FX:
export MESA_WGL_FX=window
you will get window rendering (default value);
- Only for Linux users, you can find more informations about
the env. var. MESA_GLX_FX in the "Doing more with Mesa & Linux Glide"
section;
- If you define the env. var. MESA_FX_SWAP_PENDING:
export MESA_FX_SWAP_PENDING=4
you will able to set the maximum number of swapbuffers
commands in the Voodoo FIFO after a swapbuffer (default value: 2);
- If you define the env. var. MESA_FX_INFO:
export MESA_FX_INFO=1
you will get some useful statistic.
- If you define the env. var. MESA_FX_NO_SIGNALS:
export MESA_FX_NO_SIGNALS=1
Mesa/FX will not install atexit() or signal() handlers.

but does not appear to have anything to do with my problem. I am not wanting to play high end games but even some chess games I want to play are way to slow. Any more info needed please ask.
Thanks in advance
