I have a Fujitsu Siemens notebook that comes with the sis mirage 3 graphics chip.

Ive had it for quite some time now. When i bought it, i found out that the developers have only created a 2D driver for this chip, they have also made e 3D one but that is not available to the public.

Just asking if anyone has been able to get their hands on the 3D drivers?

K so answering my own question now..

I found this in the Fujitsu Siemens Forum, someone claims to have a 3D driver for debian:

Can someone please confirm this as it appears to be risky
