Got yet ANOTHER question....

[drakster]

Okay, this should be good... I just aquired an older model 3DFX accelerator card. It's an addon card that you run your regular video card through. Got it working sweet in Winblowz, but have NO clue how to even begin to make it linux friendly. :confused:

I can't just tell linux I have a 3DFX card, because technically, all it's seeing is my regular SIS6326.

Any clues????

Hello --
What you have there is a Voodoo 2. It's pretty much the same thing as the Voodoo3 1000 I believe (PCI version). You should be able to use those drivers and it should work I think.

Appreciate the response. But I don't think it'll work just to use the Voodoo drivers because I have a Monster 3D II, which is an add-on card. It doesn't replace the original video card, it just daisy-chains to it. Which means Linux is still just seeing the original card. (An onboard SIS6326) Does that make sense?

Okay, maybe I'm completely wrong....
