3dfx Voodoo Banshee not working
3dfx Voodoo Banshee working in xorg in Puppy 3.01 bat not working in Puppy 4.0
I am having a similar issue. I can't get Xorg to work with a 3dfx voodoo 3 card. I can use Xorg with my onboard video card but when I put in voodoo 3 card Xorg will not load and I must default to Xversa.
I am a total n00b in Linux and have found Puppy to be very easy and accessible tool to learn more about Linux through but I can't quite figure this one out.
I have Rerun the Xorgwizard without success. I am running Puppy Linux .41, Pentium II 400 Mhz, 384 MB Ram, 5 gig HD. Thanks!

Total shot in the dark from trying to compile the new Xorg server, but...
There could be missing libs/drivers/firmware in your installations that are needed to support the video cards you are using. Here, Let me Google that for you. It would seem Puppy isn't the only Linux Distro that this affects. Might look at the Red Hat forums to see what they are doing for it.

As a follow up, I am testing out the Barebones-pup based on 4.1.2 now and Xorg seems be working.
I am not 100% sure about which version is currently running but the initial setup didn't kick me out of Xorg with an error like what happened in 4.1.1. This could be due to the new 4.1.2 puppy base or something to do with Barebones itself.

Any way I can confirm I am running Xorg and somehow it didn't default Xvesa.
