Works great.  It is important though that your SCSI host adapter be
able to present the Jaz drive as a BIOS device.

	Hello,

	I'm looking for an X-server concerning a '3D Blaster Banshee PCI'.
I've just read this card wasn't supported yet. If anyone know how to use
this card under Linux ...
	thank you for answering me.

K�vin,

There is an early development Banshee server for XFree86 that I have
found to be very stable (no crashes yet with a version from
early Feb.) on my sytem.

This server is being developed by Daryll Strauss, who to 3Dfx is the
single contact point for 3Dfx support under Linux, and who
has developed all the support for other 3Dfx cards under Linux. For
status on this server, and a link to the most recent version,
please see Daryll's status page at:

http://glide.xxedgexx.com/status.html

I'd certainly recommend giving the most recent development version of
this a try. It doesn't have 3-D support yet, or full 2-D
acceleration, but it is pretty fast and supports high resolutions with
lots of colors. I think you'll be rather pleased!

There is 'alpha' (   ;)   ) level support, via an X server that a very
great man was kind enough to write and compile for us newbies. Here is
the URL:

http://glide.xxedgexx.com/3DfxRPMS_vb_glibc.html

Feel free to email me, but the instructions on his page are pretty good.
