Have you installed the NVIDIA kernel module and GLX library? You also
need
to configure DRI in your X server's configuration file. Here is a link
for
NVIDIA's readme on how to set things up:

	I've built Q3 on fedora, and it runs - but only with "software"
rendering (I have to include the command line option for software
rendering). This makes performance rather choppy. Can anyone tell me
what I need to run hardware rendering? Do I need a different library or
a whole new graphics card? (I've currently got a Nvidia GeForce FX5200 -
not top of the line, but respectable in its day).

Thanks,

Ted
