my attempts to get non-Mac PCI cards that were supported by XF86 4.x to
work have proven pretty fruitless so far. The cards I've played with are:
- a generic ATI Mach 64
- S3 Virge
- generic S3 card
and I've tried the ati, vga, s3virge drivers (IIRC).
I haven't attempted any of this with XF86 4.0.2, only 4.0 and 4.0.1.
if you have any success, please let me know...
