So, 7.2 betas 1 through 3 autodetected my Voodoo5 and configured it for

7.2 full and while it did detect my V5 I cannot get hard ware
acceleration to work. The Xlog file says this:

and this about it:

(II) TDFX(0): direct rendering disabled
whats up? It look sto my highly untrained eyes that the X startup
process can only find half of the video card but I don't know what the
hell I'm talking about.
I tried recompiling the tdfx module from the linux.3dfx.com web site and
when I installed it I got messages that it conflicts with a kernel
module.
Other then this 7.2 is great. It feels more fluid, faster, more
stable. Keep up the great work mandrake folks!
