Hi All,

I was thinking to post this to -ports, but since the pkg-descr for the
port said to report problems to this list, here it is.

I'm on a machine here running a Voodoo 4 4500 under XF86 4.0.2. I have the
Linux glide port installed, however when I run the test-glide program:

test00:
Clear screen to blue
2.4b1
Resolution: 640x480
Press A Key To Begin Test.
_GlideInitEnvironment: glide2x.dll expected Voodoo Graphics, none detected

I would assume that the last message given means it cannot find my card,
however the card *is* there and functional :)

My dmesg shows me this:

pci0: <3Dfx model 0009 graphics accelerator> at 16.0 irq 2

.. However, there is somewhat of a catch that could be the reason for
this. This cursed motherboard has a built in ATI Mach-64 that simply
cannot be fully turned off.. I have the VGA resources for it disabled in
the resource configurator (it's a Dell), but it still shows up on dmesg
and whatnot on pci1. Could this be causing glide to see the ATI and choke
while not looking further for the Voodoo?

Any advice or pointers is appreciated, thanks in advance.

Matt
