I was wondering if there was a way to initialize your video card in Linux Mandrake 8.0. I have a Voodoo5 AGP 5500 and I dont have any drivers for it nor do I know where I caould find some. One thing is I would like to play some games and I dont think I can because of the drivers. The other thing I noticed is when I go to setup the screensaver everytime I click on the screensavers with "GL" in parantheses linux will freeze up. I really need help anything woudlbe appreciated. THe rest of the specs on my system are in my siganture.

This was written for RedHat, but has been reported to work for Mandrake 8:
