Does anybody know how to get G400 and GPL to get along
in 3D accellerated. Doesnt matter if it's OpenGL or D3D.

there is no D3D-support in GPL, but a openGL-beta. compared with the
glide (3dfx) or rendition support it is damn slow in***pit view. grab
it at papy or the pits and give it a try anyway, but disable the mirrors
as described in the readme.

I know this is a long shot but still. You could try using the opengl
rasterizer for GPL ( opengl 2 patch ) and using a program by SciTech ( i
think ) that translates OpenGL to D3D. I forgot the name of the program. Why
this? Because i've never heard of anybody been able to run GPL with G400
through OpenGL rasterizer. Remeber this is just an option that i'm 95% sure
won't work but you still can try it!
