3D Prophet vid card problems...

[mrgeoff]

I know the Prophet has some 3D acceleration, but linux has not enabled it. I have tried to install the general PowerVR driver from the PowerVR website. I can not find the driver that i just installed. Please forgive me, I'm new to linux. My distro is Suse 9 pro.

I have a 3D prophet. Mine counts as an nVidia GeForce2.
Does yours? To find out at the command line type thwe folloing.

lspci -v | grep VGA

see what it says. If it thinks it's an nVidia search for nVidia drivers install There's a flood of them all over the net :D

when i ran that i got

01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: STMicroelectronics STG4000 [3D Prophet Kyro Series] (rev 01) (prog-if 00 [VGA])

what does that mean?
