    2. 3Dfx

*3.3.6:*

    Support (including acceleration) for Voodoo Banshee and Voodoo3
    cards is provided by the XF86_SVGA server with the tdfx driver.

*4.1.0:*

    Support for Voodoo Graphics and Voodoo2 chips is provided by the
    "glide" driver (requires version 2.x of the Glide library, which is
    not part of the XFree86 distribution).

    Support (including acceleration) for Voodoo Banshee, Voodoo3,
    Voodoo4, and Voodoo5 is provided by the "tdfx" driver.

*Summary:*

    All hardware supported in 3.3.6 is also supported in 4.1.0. The
    Voodoo Graphics, Voodoo2, Voodoo4, and Voodoo5 are supported only in
    4.1.0.

-----------------


I don't think we have XF86 version 4.1.0 , unless we have  BSD 4.4?
If this is so,  then we have to download the new free BSD 4.4, which 
will take me almost a week  with my isp connection
