+Info for Mesa 4.1
+-----------------
+
+The 3dfx Glide driver in Mesa is disabled by default. Not too many people
+use this driver anymore and at some point down the road it will be dropped.
+
+To use/enable the Glide driver either do this:
+
+'./configure --with-glide=DIR' Where DIR is the location of Glide, like
+ /usr/ or /usr/local
+
+OR
+
+'make linux-x86-glide' If using the old-style Makefile system.
+
+The rest of this file hasn't changed since Mesa 3.3. Some of it's out of
+date, but some is still valid.
