The mail you're linking to doesn't have anything to do with an
endianness problem, rather with XFree being unable to access PCI IO
space for some reason. I have no idea how Linux handles this, probably
not at all.
The tdfx driver itself is pretty unlikely to have an endianness problem.

Well, what exactly /is/ your problem? What do you mean by 'good colors'?

have fun
