Hello,

We have some problem with XFree since we have installed a new SVGA Card in our server, it's a Diamond SpeedStar A90 with a S3 Savage4 chip.
The X-Windows system don't startup.  When we launch it, it says Unknow S3 chip type and it fix the amount of video memory to 256kb but we have 16 MB on the card !
The only thing that I can do is launching XFree with the VGA16 server, so I've a 640x480 in 16 colors.  It's to small for administrate a server.

What can we do ?
Gilles Nedostoupof
