Description Alan Eldridge 2001-11-20 02:20:01 UTC
Using xf86cfg from XFree86-Server-4.1.0_2.

Configure X server on system with Voodoo3 card and tdfx driver. X will
refuse to start with an error message from TDFX stating that it does not
support the chipset value "Voodoo3".

This error is particularly nasty because the only way to work around it is 
to know to run 'strings' on the tdfx_drv.o binary, and then to take a guess
that the driver wants the string '3dfx Voodoo3' based on the output.

Fix: Note: untested, but seems pretty obvious.

Assign to new x11 ports mailinglist. 

I'd been not handling this PR because it seems like, if we are going to support 
the tools that use Cards, we shold import a much more updated one from RedHat.

From-To: x11->freebsd-x11

While PRs for ports maintained by x11@FreeBSD.org have for some time been 
assigned to 'x11', this creates duplicate reminder email postings to the 
mailing lists.  The canonical form should now be 'freebsd-x11'.
