If my memories are correctl then the 3D Rage _is_ supported in XFree 3.2 and the 3D Rage II in XFree 3.2A... 3.2A is not available as a .deb package, but I've seen several reports of people simply replacing the Mach64 Xserver binary from 3.2 with the one from 3.2A. Haven't tried this myself, but did do a similar thing under Slackware last fall (3.1.2->3.1.2F) so it'd seem reasonable... /Michael -- | Linux: Turn on...Tune in...Fork out... | | Michael Tempsch, member of Ballistic Wizards, TIP#088, TDGP#20 | | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | Cell.Phone:+46 705487554 URL:http://www.dtek.chalmers.se/~d1temp | -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
