Getting OpenGL working on a RAGE 128?


I've been searching the net for a while now, trying to find out what I need to do to get my RAGE 128 into hardware accelarated mode for openGL. It's going really slow, and i'm told its due to my pc using software rendering.
I've been told I should get the latest drivers for it, but I can't seem to find them anywhere? Anyone know where I could find them?

By the way, glxinfo outputs:
