Re: [expert] Stable video card

[Jason]

I haven't but when I had trouble with my SIS card (in a laptop), I ran Knoppix (which configured it correctly) and then copied the XF86Config and XF86Config-4 files over to Mandrake and it worked perfect. Knoppix works great as a diagnostic tool I find. If it doesn't find and configure your hardware then you must have a pretty strange beast as I have yet to see it fail. Just an idea.

Cheers

Jason

Voodoos are good, but I've had overheating problems with mine -- there's
also a lot of outdated documentation out there that can really help you
screw it up :-)

I run my AGP Voodoo3 3000 with a little 5 volt fan (any computer shop) attached to the heat sink with cable ties, blowing on to the heat sink. Sink and fan are the same length and width and all the holes line up for the ties.
