Just to be clear. I don't actually think this is mine. At least, they never talked to me about it. Mine is covered by XFree license, so they could have just compiled it, but I don't think so. Supposedly this version doesn't perform the same as mine.

Those are correct. Here's a small plug. The website covers everything I can find about 3D for Linux including my work, of course. If people know other pieces I should add, please email them to me.
