	I'm using the 2.4.9-benh0 kernel with a StarMax 4000 and a Voodoo3.
	Also, with the Voodoo3, your consoles will not work with X. You either
have to boot with no video driver and no X or X without readable consoles.

	What have you compiled in as console and framebuffer support?  I have set:

# Console drivers
#
# CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE is not set

and

# Frame-buffer support
# 
CONFIG_FB=y
CONFIG_DUMMY_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_FB_OF=y
CONFIG_FB_3DFX=y

I have ATY64 stuff instead of CONTROL stuff for the rest the framebuffer settings.

Also I have selected DRI support without any DRI modules.
