I am trying to make my PCI voodoo2 accelerator work with XFree but XFree won't find the driver...
I installed XFree without the 3dfx and voodoo3 USE flags, installed some glide drivers for voodoo2, made a softlink in /usr/X11R6/lib/modules to the installed file /usr/lib/libglide2x.so and put the proper configuration inside the XF86Config file but all I get is a complaint from XFree, saying that XFree can't find the module "glide"...
Since I have done everything the XFree documentation tells me to do I can't understand why it won't work.
Here is my XF86Config:
Code:

Section "ServerLayout"
        Identifier     "Simple Layout"
        Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
        InputDevice    "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
        InputDevice    "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection

Section "Files"
        RgbPath      "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb"
        ModulePath   "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules"
        FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/local/"
        FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/"
        FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled"
        FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled"
        FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/"
        FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/"
        FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/"
        FontPath     "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/"
EndSection

Section "Module"
        Load  "pex5"
        Load  "record"
        Load  "extmod"

        Load  "speedo"
EndSection

EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Mouse0"
        Driver      "mouse"
        Option      "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
        Option      "Device" "/dev/psaux"
        Option      "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
        #DisplaySize      360   270     # mm
        Identifier   "Monitor0"
        VendorName   "FUS"
        ModelName    "C992"
        Option       "DPMS"
EndSection

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "Matrox Mystique"
        Driver      "mga"
        BusID       "PCI:0:20:0"
EndSection

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "Voodoo"
        Driver      "glide"
        Option      "dpms" "on"
        Option      "GlideDevice" "0"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Matrox Mystique"
        Monitor    "Monitor0"
        DefaultDepth     16
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     1
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     4
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     8
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     15
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     16
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     24
        EndSubSection
EndSection

Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Gamescreen"
        Device     "Voodoo"
        Monitor    "Monitor0"
        DefaultDepth     16
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth     16
        EndSubSection
EndSection

When I run
Code:
startx -- -screen Gamescreen

I get that annoying message about the module that doesn't seem to exist.

I can't get this to work either. The testGlide* binaries seem to work as they should. I want to be able to use mesa or something, but I can't get it to use glide. This is a voodoo2 of course.
