You have to set GLX_CHIPSET to tnt (it defaults to mga for Matrix G200
and G400). Did you do that?
The version that's in the pkgsrc is a bit buggy (fog and smoke look
particularly nasty). I haven't fooled with it in a while, but I had
the package half-updated to a newer version (Oct 10th version instead of
August 4th). It's better for some things, but seems much slower.
