As far as I know, you can't. 3dfx (and most other 3d chip makers)
do not release register level programming info on their parts
that would allow free libraries to be created, but supplies precompiled
libraries for a limited number of compilers. For 3dfx, these include
Watcom (for DOS), MSVC (Windows) and Linux. It does not appear to
be possible to convert these libraries for use with DJGPP. 3dfx
support via Mesa etc. relies on the 3dfx libraries so DJGPP users
are still out in the cold. I hope this will change, but I'm not
holding my breath.
