maybe i can help.. david >The debs are hopelessly broken: david >Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies: david > libglide2-v3: Depends: device3dfx-module but it is not installable 2 options here. 1 is to go get the Device3dfx rpm, and issue a rpm --rebuild to it, and install it, then use --force-depends to force install glide. i wouldnnt reccomend this may cause trouble.(might not but never know...) the other is to go get the RPMs of both Device3Dfx and glide and recompile them(i suggest getting the source and compiling not the binaries) and installing. and the last(yes i know i cant count) i can send you my binaries of the module and or glide and you can install it. i can also send the X server i use (also compiled from source). works great on both voodoo banshee and vd3 2000. However it does NOT appear to work on my socket 7 system, the only 3DFX accelerated X server i can get to work on that is XF86 3.3.3 ..ive tried 3.3.4 3.3.5 and 3.3.6 all give the same errors (could not mmap framebuffer (device not configured)) david >Also, teh kernel module just tells me 3dfx: unable to set MTRR i had this too, you have to load the 3dfx module AFTER you load X in this case..on my main system it loads fine before X, but on my socket 7 box with XF86 3.3.3 i have to load it after or i get that error(using caldera openlinux 2.2 on it since it was already XF86 3.3.3 based) david >If you have a voodoo banshee or voodoo3 working under debian, please david >let me know. ive spent weeks working with this so if u need more help lemme know. nate ----------------------------------------[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ]-- Vice President Network Operations http://www.firetrail.com/ Firetrail Internet Services Limited http://www.aphroland.org/ Everett, WA 425-348-7336 http://www.linuxpowered.net/ Powered By: http://comedy.aphroland.org/ Debian 2.1 Linux 2.0.36 SMP http://yahoo.aphroland.org/ -----------------------------------------[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ]-- 7:27am up 159 days, 19:34, 1 user, load average: 1.19, 1.14, 1.10
