Install device3dfx sources and tar zxfv it. Then read the doc in
/usr/src/modules/device3dfx/debian/README.debian.
For your convenience, here are the instructions:
mknod /dev/3dfx c 107 0
(set permissions on /dev/3dfx, up to you)
apt-get install device3dfx-source
tar zxfv /usr/src/device3dfx*gz # I don't remember the name! :)
cd /usr/src/modules/device3dfx
make
cp 3dfx.o /lib/modules/<<kernel version>>/misc
modconf
(add the module 3dfx)
And you're done!
Hope this helps.
