Yes,
I get this problem also. But I assume it's because the ldconfig is not run
and it is not loading the dri module in the xf86config-4 file. Pixel, is it
possible to get the xconfig file updated so it will work on Vodoo3 3000
cards?
Once I finished the install, without knowing X is configured properly or
not, I shut down, rebooted into the os and ran ldconfig, then I added dri to
the module section and it started x.
Now, I have a white block going down the right hand side of the screen. It
doesn't matter what resolution or color depth I change to, it's always
there. I think it's a configuration issue. Or perhaps it's the frame buffer
enabled kernel I installed that's causing the problem? I'll try doing a
fresh install later today with the regular kernel.
I'm using a Vodoo 3 3000 AGP, and a relisys monitor. I installed the fb
kernel.

How ironic. I have the exact same set up as you do! 32mb of ram but only
a single head setup. I found that even though I selected 1024x768 I got
1600x1200. It took me awhile to figure out how to lower the resolution,
since none of the old utilities for changing resolution work yet. But it
seems a little faster, it is a LOT less hard on my eyes. It always used
to give me a headache and fuzzy eyes. now it seems great!
