Hi,There are quite a number of known issues with the via driver, i am not certain what causes your problems, but it might be a DRI/DRM issue. Alan Cox has reported that he has his DRI working, and that he has submitted his changes.
Using the X VIA driver (KT266) version 4.3.99.16, every version of doom out there (lsdldoom, llxdoom, prboom) locks up the system shortly after initializing the sound. Using the vesa driver works fine with everything else being the same.
I notice that there is a more recen version available, unfortunately my development system is packed at the moment. If you happen to know that a more recent version will fix this problem, please (Please! Please!) email me and let me know so that I can get the latest.
Regards, Warren Melnick CTO CAC Media

You will find people submitting their binaries on http://forums.viaarena.com/categories.cfm?catid=28&forumid=1 But, even though i think that the users of that forum are in good faith, this is not affiliated to xfree86.org and therefor binaries should be treated with the necessary caution.
