I use the voodoo 3 3000, and have had DRI working before under RH 7.1.
I'll see if I can get it up again (Check my notes, etc.)

Ok, tuxracer is accelerated.

First get rid of mesag-glide2 and libglide2.  Those are for XFree 3.3.x.
Second, make sure you have all the XFree86 4.x stuff installed, in par-
ticular xlibmesa3.  Third, check for any other mesa stuff, and get rid of it.  
XFree provides all the mesa you need.  Fourth, make sure that tdfx is
actually loaded (/usr/sbin/lsmod). 

Probably, since glxinfo claims dri is enabled, the extra mesa stuff is
intercepting calls.  I spent days finding that problem the last time.
