I checked the debian planet, newsgroups etc and it looks like it
should be working but it's not, here's the message that I get when I run
glxinfo (or some GL program, e.g. atlantis of xscreensaver fame):
jojda:~>glxinfo
gd error (glide): Can't find or access Banshee/V3 board
fx Driver: ERROR no Voodoo1/2 Graphics or Voodoo Rush !
