by Hi all! I have a problem to share with you experts, hope you can help
me out :)
Ok, I installed RH 7.0 (respin discs) a few weeks ago, and now I want to
begin setting up my Voodoo3 3000 agp for gameplay.. Well, this is
harder than it seems. I had a voodoo 1 a long time ago that set up
perfectly, but voodoo3 seems to be a problem.
Anyways, after digging to find the drivers, since linux.3dfx.com is now
down, I finally installed Device3dfx and Glide (for glibc). They both
installed successfully. I dont think I need any other type of driver
(other than mesa) to get it to work since X 4.0 has Voodoo3 support
built in: correct me if I am wrong. Well, time comes to test it:
/usr/local/glide/bin/test3Dfx If I am non-root (which I always
am), glide reports that it cannot find the V3 board. However, if I su
to root then try the test program, it starts to load, but locks up my
machine... no way out, I have to reset it.. gah.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Perhaps some of you have successfully
installed a V3 in RH 7.0. Any help or urls would be greatly
appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Brady
