[Comm-en] Xfree86 Hardware Acceleration

Hi.  I recently installed Alt Linux Junior and did a dist-upgrade to the Sisyphus 
repository.  The sound failed to work afterwords, but I got that fixed by reading 
through the mailing list and finding the fix.  When XFree86 updated however, 3d 
acceration stopped working my 3d games(Gltron and tuxracer).  I tried to boot up with 
knoppix and add any useful changes to XFree86Config-4, but I have so far been 
unable to fix anything.  Does anybody know what could be wrong?  My 
XFree86Config-4 file is pasted below.  Thanks to anyone that helps out.
