Let's not get into religious wars over the manufacturer of our Voodoo2
cards.  Diamond Monster2 works fine with GPL.  Don't know about Diamond
Monster Fusion. If you have installed DirectX 6.0, you need to copy an
older version (2.53) of the 3dfx glide2x.dll. The latest glide2x.dll
(2.54) seems to be the problem.

fine on the Monster.

Fair enough...its just that I keep hearing of problems with GPL and D
Monster Vll, and I know I had the same problems as these guys are
having.  I stand corrected. The decree Nisi is forthcoming.  |o)

OK...I agree...I won't shoot my keyboard off again about DMVll....Now
would you mind explaining the term "dodgey board" to our international
audience.  |o)
