Well, ATI is the hardware you get when you buy a Mac today. So it is the
most important thing.

I was told it is a known problem. (No, I do not have the time to look at it
myselves).

I meant ATI Rage 128 of course :) It is just my interest about 3D support for
the Boards you will get if you buy a G3 or G4 Mac today (which will be
ATI Rage 128 or ATI Rage Pro, depending on system).

point me to a place where I can get this ? And if they exist in Source form,
someone has them already in Binary form maybe ?
