The current kernel still contains version 0.1.3 which is rather old. Much
work has been done until version 0.2.2, mainly support for:

* non-8 dot wide fonts
* multihead
* full 8/16/24/32 bit color (fixes the ugly bootup penguin)
* MIPS
* module options

I think it's worth to give it a chance and to continue development on the
base of that code. So I "ported" it to kernel 2.4.2x. Get this new patch
here:

http://tu-ilmenau.de/~johe-ii/3dfx-0.2.2-2.4.21-pre1.diff.gz

I just merged the improvements that happened to v0.1.3 while it was in the
kernel and did some source formating.
Thanks. I'm looking over the patch now and will intergrate it into 2.5.X.
