+cat << EOF
+voodoo  is an XFree86 driver for Voodoo 1 and Voodoo 2 series video adapters. 
+On the Voodoo 1 the driver uses a shadow buffer in system memory as the video
+adapter has only 3D acceleration. Selected portions of the shadow framebuffer 
+are copied out to the Voodoo board at the right time. Because of this, the 
+speed of the driver is very dependent on the CPU. Processors nowdays are 
+actually rather fast at moving data so we get very good speed anyway as the 
+shadow framebuffer is in cached RAM. 
+
+The Voodoo2 has 16bpp acceleration and the driver provides accelerated versions
+of most operations except angled lines and stipples. Accelerated alpha blending
+with the Render extension is also supported as is DGA.
