 Are you sure you're running the right libGL?  I had this problem when I was using 
4.0.2 debs with the MGA DRI stuff from the DRI project, and after installing the 
proper libGL (the one meant for MY [DRI] X server) and recompiled mesademos, it went 
away.


I'am not sure what you mean but I run this in a clean chroot environment with debian 
testing and no other
software installed. I use the "task-x-window" package that installes "xlibmesa3" and 
"xlibmesa-dev" debs.


  This also happend with 4.02 version so it's the same problem. I also recompiled 
the libglide library but it did not help.

 GLide, AFAIK, has very little if anything to do with gears from the mesademos 
package.  It's straight OpenGL (again; I smoke a lot of crack, so this advice may be 
entirely worthless).

It is needed for 3dfx cards.

 Try reducing your resolution. The TDFX driver seems to have pretty severe
 problems coping with screens using large amounts of memory. At 1792x1344
 (16 bit) everything works for me. At 1840x1392 DRI apps segfault if they
 try to display anything (glxinfo still works fine). At 1960x1440, I get
 severe screen corruption. I've had the same problem since 4.01 (which is
 when I got my V3). As far as I know, it's a known issue.


Thats it. It only works on some sizes I tried it with 1024*768 and everything 
was OK.

 I run this on kernel 2.4.3 no patches.

Same here.
