Framebuffer driver: cat /proc/fb
If it's tdfxfb, try disabling acceleration. If it's OFfb, there's no way
but to avoid it or fix the X driver.
X driver: grep 'drivers/.*_drv' /var/log/XFree86.0.log
It's most definitely the tdfx driver, the only other possibility would
be fbdev but that's not accelerated so this kind of failure can't really
happen.
