Attached is a patch against 2.6.11.7 which tidies up the tdfxfb framebuffer
size detection code a little and fixes the broken support for Voodoo4/5 cards.
(I haven't tested this on a Voodoo5, however, because I don't have the
hardware).

I /do/ have the hardware, so I am very glad to see someone working on
support for the Voodoo 5. Are there any specific tests you would like me
to perform and send you the results from?

I am glad somebody is interested. ;-)

It's quite simple really. With this patch, does tdfxfb report the right amount
of framebuffer memory for your card? The method it used to determine the
amount of memory for the Voodoo4/5 before was wrong. If it gave the right
value before, then it was probably just a coincidence.
