not sure what it is but I have the same stuff in my log (and I have only one voodoo 3 video card and it works)Hi,I'm trying to get my voodoo3 working but i am having some serious problems... The computer boots up fine w/ the card in, and X works great w/ the "vesa" driver (other than no acceleration of course). If i try the "tdfx" driver, however, X goes crazy (the screen is bright shifting colors and the cursor is a gigantic black rectangle). After i kill X w/ ctrl+alt+backspace the console is ruined (looks a lot like X except in b&w) so i have to reset the computer. I have been trying to figure this out but so far no luck, i have attached my XFree86.log and my XF86Config-4 (and also output from dmesg). Here is the stuff that is probably significant although i am not sure: (II) LoadModule: "int10" (II) Loading /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/linux/libint10.a (II) Module int10: vendor="The XFree86 Project" compiled for 4.2.1.1, module version = 1.0.0 ABI class: XFree86 Video Driver, version 0.5 (II) TDFX(0): Softbooting the board (through the int10 interface). (II) TDFX(0): Primary V_BIOS segment is: 0xc000 (II) TDFX(0): Softbooting the board succeeded. Why is it softbooting my board? Isn't that only supposed to be done when you have two cards and one of isn't started at bootup by the bios?
I think this part right here is the major bad stuff: (II) TDFX(0): Failed to set dac value, bypassing CLUT (II) TDFX(0): Failed to set dac value, bypassing CLUT (II) TDFX(0): Failed to set dac value, bypassing CLUT (II) TDFX(0): Failed to set dac value, bypassing CLUT
don't have this though. are you sure you have tdfx kernel module compiled?
here's my config file:
