We are installing FreeBSD and XFree86 in our lab in Polytechnic U. for
mbone purpose.

Our purpose is to run XWindows under more true color ( 24/32 bits color
depth ). 

We tried Diamond Stealth 3D 2000 Pro, XF86Config detected the card and
sucessfully loaded XServer using XF86_SVGA driver. But once we changed the
driver to XF86_S3V, XServer cannot be loaded. 

What card should we use to have 24/32 bits color in XWindows? Do you have
video card compability list for XWindows? Or can you make any
suggestions? Thank you very much.


Regards,

Andrew Lee
