At one time I was trying to use a Voodoo3 3000 in a C3000, but I was
unsuccessful (linux fb wouldn't initialise/turn on the display, and
the native XFree86 driver would crash the machine).
That was about 2 years ago I think, and some things have changed since
then ... you might even be successful today. Just try and find out :-)
