a little blast from the past
I have the 3dfx Voodoo 5 5500 AGP, in my computer, i'm running gentoo, and I don't think i've got it set up right for 2d acceleration, as pretty much everything in X is slow, and lags, and determining that my friend with a geforce 2 had the same visualizations in xmms running much faster, i figure i've missed something
