Or is it that they are just in Little Endian mode? That answers my question you had mentioned something to this effect in other threads, I just wondered if it had ever been fixed or if I was doing something wrong.

I notice that there was some discussion on the Linux driver development for the Voodoo 4 that how it handled BE modes was different than the Voodoo 3.

The Voodoo 4 bug with Warp3D is a separate bug which may or may not show incorrectly rendered 3D triangles before freezing/crashing. This is a newer bug which does *not* affect 2D. Reverting to the old pci.library solves this problem for me. It is probably an init problem with how the board/registers are mapped so may only affect certain configurations. This is *not* a bug in W3D.
I haven't noticed this myself with the Voodoo 4 and Sonnet combo.

I doubt anything can be easily done with either bug without Elbox help. Are you helping to program Amigenerator and/or WarpSNES?
No, I just was suggesting two applications which had the incorrect color issue.
