I have a new 3dfx Voodo3 3000 and it works well with SVGA-3.3.6 - except that at shutdown, just before poweroff should happen, it goes into a loop putting textlines on the display and must be stopped by a 4 second hold-down of the power button, ie power off. The linux part of the shutdown is all done, so there are no problems coming up again.It really looks bad, though. -- Regards, Ron. [AU] - sent by Linux.

Hello, I have a Rage 128 Mobility Pro card. I also have an oustanding observation report logged with Justin Young as follows : >Hello, > >I have noticed something for a while now, and it hasn't improved with XFree86 >4.0 > >I use the 3D screensaver Morph3D (GL).

I noticed this problem first on XFree86 3.3.5-15 using the XFree86-Mach64 server. I still use this server with XFree86 4.0, because kde has great trouble working with 4.0-3mdk, I haven't tried -4mdk yet. However the problem exists in 4.0-3mdk. I have never managed to get the Rage128 to work at all, and couldn't persuade X to work with the SVGA server and the Rage card except in the lowest possible modes (640 x 480, 8bpp etc). As far as I am concerned these servers can disappear !
