OK, here goes. I have a problem with my Voodoo3 card... Now I have installed the
X server w/ the MDK 6.1 installer, and everything with that works fine. Now this is
my problem: When got a downloaded the 3d GLIDE stuff from the linux.3dfx.com site (or
whater it is) and installed the RPMs, everything went just peachy. But when i try the
final step of setting up the voodoo, it fails. All this last step is, is running a
simple program called "test3Dfx". It makes sure your card works. All i get when i run
the program is " video memory is unprotecting" "Could not open display (640x480)
Application Aborted. "

i have no clue what makes this do what it does..

please help.. (programming GLIDE is what i do on my windows box, but i want to use my
voodoo3 on my linux box. thats why i bought it :)


thanks

Jerrud
