What chipset does this video card use?  S3?  Are you using Xfree 4.x or
Xfree 3.3.6 servers?  have you tried both of them?  Use:

Xconfigurator --preferxf3
or
Xconfigurator --preferxf4

to force a particular server.  One may work better than the other.  Please
also attach your config files and your X server output to this bug report.

I haven't received the information I need, please supply me with the details
of your configuration.  I need to know what chipset this card uses.  Is it
an S3 Virge, or something else?  Please attach config files from non-working
setup of XFree86 4.x and also 3.3.6 if you've tried that also.  Also attach
X server logs of each failed setup.  This will help me to corelate info with
other bugs, and hopefully track it down.
Comment 3 Mike A. Harris 2001-03-28 06:40:42 UTC 
This has been fixed with the 1.15 driver update in XFree86-4.0.3-4 in
rawhide.
