- A likely timeframe for first 3D Drivers

  not be more than 3 months from now

Again, what is not working for you?  What have you tried to get them
working for you and how did it fair?
I cannot try getting something to work what does not exist. And appearently
there are no GLX- or DRI-Drivers for ATI Rage (or any other hardware) yet.
I am talking about Hardware Accelerated Mesa3D here...
Ok, you should say so (3D support for older video cards like ATI Rage) in
your previous message then.  As you may know, DRI drivers already exist
for mga, r128, tdfx, i810 in source form.
I'm working on a /dev/agpgart implementation for new machines. But DRI
should be already port-able using the PCI GART provided by most ATI
chipsets. Any volunteer ?
