I too need to get my banshee running on X windows. If you are more adept at linux than I, there is a preliminary driver at http://glide.xxedgexx.com. If anyone finds something easier, please share.

Also look at http://www.uno.edu/~adamico/banshee/ for an alternative solution. Not less complicated, though. You need in any case Kernel 2.2 or/and glibc.

I have found that replacing the fusion card with a cheapo S3 card is the fastest solution out there. Why support Dimond if they don't support Linux?
