no - it's no AMD-AGP bug (I'm already test mem=nopentium kernel parameter 
- this not resolve this problem)
I'm think Returt to Castle Wolfenstein 1.1b is buggy version (I'm read 
comments about 1.1b version for linux on slashdot.org and found different 
bug reports).
About  wrong texture colours with Unreal Tournament 436 - on XFree 4.2.0 I 
can't found this problem - possibly, error fixed in 4.2.0. But I found 
another problem - UT freeze on high rendering quality in game video 
settings.

Thanks for you answear!

3Dfx Velocity 100? I've never heard of this. How closely related to the
Voodoo3/5 is it? Does it use the 'tdfx' drivers? I find the same sort of
issues running UT on my home box with a Voodoo5 and a P3-650.

  Can this be related to the recently discovered AMD-AGP bug?

This would not be likely, since if it's a Voodoo-based card (as I
suspect), it doesn't actually make use of the GART anyway - it just uses
the AGP bus as a faster PCI bus, basically.

 About  wrong texture colours with Unreal Tournament 436 - on XFree 4.2.0 I
 can't found this problem - possibly, error fixed in 4.2.0. But I found
 another problem - UT freeze on high rendering quality in game video
 settings.

Do you see rainbowed textures in the opening sequence in particular?
Also, texture corruption in the menus?

Hello!

I have 3dfx velocity 100 videocard, Athlon 1.33 GHz on SiS 735 chipset 
system.

Returt to Castle Wolfenstein 1.1b graphics work very well, but I have 
system freeze after some minutes of playng (singeplayer version).

Possibly, I can try new drivers (from 
http://www.xfree86.org/~alanh/drm-4.2.0-kernelsource.tar.gz) for reslove 
my problems?

Thanks for your answear!
