Subject: Voodoo3 2000 PCI

    Hi,
    due to an advertisement of a local dealer i thought about buying a PCI
    Voodoo3 2000 PCI graphic adapter. To check itīs support I had a look at
    SuSE hardware database and found that it was supported by the current
    X11 SVGA driver (and GLIDE), hurra!
    Then I had a closer look at the packages in SuSE 6.4 AXP and found the
    dev3dfx package missing!
    So, what am I missing ??
    Is my impression correct, that the hardware database of SuSE is ONLY
    concerned about x386??
    If so, why is there no hint that it is ?

    Anyway can someone give me a hint about Voodoo 3 cards on Linux/AXP

    Tia,

            Thomas
