Normally I'd be mad at a phone recording but there is NO way your machine was handling Minecraft and a screen recorder at the same time lol. Good post

What you are saying isn't possible at all. The Tseng Labs ET6000 had no 3D acceleration at all, and certainly didn't run OpenGL which is needed for Minecraft. See https://theretroweb.com/chip/documentation/et600090-6718a324cb655867197199.pdf

What's probably going on here is your Linux system is falling back to software rendering using a renderer called llvmpipe. Go press F3 and see what renderer the game is really using.

Oh yeah, thats right, 1995 was 30 years ago...

If possible, get this thing using Linux mint. Then, use every fabric optimization mod you can find (not conflicting ones of course) and then on top of that lower the thread count for world generation to 1. Will make parts of the world load really slow, but will improve performance.

Here, use the XP drivers, which is the latest one for that card, make sure to use XP Service Pack 3 https://dosdays.co.uk/topics/Manufacturers/tsenglabs_downloads.php#ET6000

and use a third-party launcher that supports XP SP2 64-bit (which i think i can't link, should be able to find a .iso pretty easily tho), like ATLauncher. Might be forced to use versions up to 1.16.5, since XP doesn't support Java 17. But other than that it should work better than without drivers, and on an older OS.
