It looks broken with 2.4.4 and 4.0.3:

(WW) TDFX(0): Failed to set up write-combining range
(0xe0000000,0x2000000)
(II) TDFX(0): Textures Memory 7.93 MB
(0): [drm] drmOpen failed
(EE) TDFX(0): DRIScreenInit failed, disabling DRI.
(II) TDFX(0): Using XFree86 Acceleration Architecture (XAA)

Oh yeah, and APM seems to damage the server, e.g. the xbanner image on the
login screen disappears (just a plain background) and the mouse pointer
flashes. Switching VCs clears these problems. Probably an XFree problem.

If you need any info just ask - not that I particularly care, the sooner I
get rid of this piece of crap card the better...
