Author: Mark BerkwittDate: Subject: Is 3Dfx well supported in Linux?
I was gonna buy a video card for a new system I'm building when I traded
someone local my S3 Trio64+ for this 3Dfx video card.
When I boot, the first thing on the screen is:
MXIC
Micronix International
MX85251 BIOS 9/11/97 ver 1.05
4MB Frame Buffer 2MB Texture Memory
It has some 3Dfx chips and somewhere I read it could be a voodoo rush.
So, what is this thing?
I have another video card on a shelf in a box labeled:
Voodoo2
BLACKMAGIC 3D
3D gaming accelerator
12MB PCI Bus
STB
How can I best use these cards on a dual boot W2K/Linux system?
Are they designed to be used together?
