I'm running the CL SB Voodoo Banshee. I was running some 3rd party
drivers for a while..
They worked, but it seemed to be 800x600.. CL has a driver on thier
site ( I'm assuming this will work with your card ).
Under support, then drivers.. This latest driver works great.. Running
1280x1024 I think.
DLOAD THE DRIVER before you install. My desktop ( KDE ) came up in like
300x240 or something. I couldn't even see the desktop.
Get the file, after install boot into runlevel 3.
( When it says Lilo boot: )
type linux 3
This will give you command line. Login as root, find the file. Install.
Shutdown. Reboot.
Walla.
