Hi Alexander,

You should compile the latest 2.4.19-paXX CVS snapshot 
(http://www.parisc-linux.org/kernel/index.html).
With it, your Voodoo2 should work as /dev/fb0 if you compile
with CONFIG_FB_VOODOO1=y

I've no clue about the ATI, but the fx2 is definitively not supported yet.

Best regards,
Helge
