OK, I have an Obsidian Voodoo card, an S3 968 (rev0) and Linux. 
When I try to run 3D stuff (read: Quake), it runs for a bit, then locks
up the entire console. I've read that the problem is because the S3 card
steps on the Voodoo cards memory space (bad S3!). 

How do I map the Voodoo card to a different address space so this
problem is avoided? 

Thank you,
