Install device3dfx sources and tar zxfv it. Then read the doc in
/usr/src/modules/device3dfx/debian/README.debian.

For your convenience, here are the instructions:
mknod /dev/3dfx c 107 0
(set permissions on /dev/3dfx, up to you)
apt-get install device3dfx-source
tar zxfv /usr/src/device3dfx*gz  # I don't remember the name! :)
cd /usr/src/modules/device3dfx
make
cp 3dfx.o /lib/modules/kernel version/misc
modconf
(add the module 3dfx)

And you're done!

Hope this helps.

 Hey,

 I just got done formatiing/re-installing my computer (various reasons,
 none important), and I was starting to set up my 3dfx card, but I can't
 remember how to do the device file, and I can't find it in the 2.4
 kernel docs.  I remember it was in a subdirectory, and the file was
 called card0 (i think), but I don't know device numbers etc.  Please
 supply me all needed info
