Hey there all, I've got a performa 6360 here, running woody, with a Voodoo3
3000 PCI in it, works great with fbdev, but I'd really like to use an
accelerated X-server, so I built a custom 2.4.18 kernel with the tdfx drivers,
pass the tdfx options to the kernel in BootX, and it starts up fine, console is
working great (yes, I know about the Bug with the driver, DO NOT switch between
X and console once you start X, verymuchbad) that being said, the first
startup, after reconfiguring XF86Config-4, starts up fine, and then I startup
an App, and it's ok, then I fire up the e-mail client, and boom, it locks up,
requiring a hard reboot, locks up so bad that the precautionary ssh session
from another machine dies. reboot, fsck, restart X, locks up before the screen
redraw, reboot, fsck, remove all the .* X-related files and directories in my
~/ directory, X fires up, runs fine all night, I get up this morning, fire up
gabber, it locks up again. The only modules I'm currently loading for XFree
are the font modules (freetype, speedo, etc.) no DRI, no GLCore, no glx.
Anybody else had these problems? I mean, I can use this machine with fbdev,
but the X experience is rather less enjoyable.
