You can try the _experimental_ kernel & XFree86 3.9.16 rpm from Kostas:

ftp://idd-01.imbc.gr/pub/voodoo3

NOTE: XFree86 4.0 REQUIRES a very different /etc/X11/XF86Config file from
XFree86 3.x.  I have some different XF86Config files at:

http://www.cise.ufl.edu/~phandel/linux/sample/

Also, you *may* need to change the BusID number based on what slot your
Voodoo3 is in (BusID "PCI:0:15:0" for me) if commenting it out doesn't
work.

3.9.16 runs well, although not as fast as 4.0.  I've put a comparison of
the Rage128-x86, TNT2, and Voodoo3 XF86 3.9.16 & 4.0 on my web page:

http://www.cise.ufl.edu/~phandel/linux/txt/r128_tnt2_v3.txt

I believe these were all done at 1024x768 16bpp.


Thanks,
Peter

[btw- you can also copy the tdfxfb.c from 2.3.x to a 2.2.14 tree and apply
Kostas' tdfxfb patch, which is what I'm running]
