X server fails to start on Mach64 + Voodoo 2

Bug Description

I tried the hoary i386 live CD on an old PC, with an ATI 3D Rage II for 2D and a
Voodoo 2 for 3D.
The X server didn't start. Something about a missing glide driver.
Please either 1) change hw detection to exclude glide and use the Mach46 card
instead, or 2) include the glide driver.

Having never used the glide driver for 2D, I doubt the voodoo can do as solid 2D
as the Mach 64, so I prefer option 1.

Please attach /var/log/Xorg.0.log and /etc/X11/xorg.conf from a live CD session
booted on that system
