     I am now trying to Bring up XFree86 on an IBM ValuePoint with
     S3 86C801/805 Chipset with an ATT20C490-80 ramdac. I have tried
     all the configurations and options suggested in the README.S3
     docs. Each time I try to start X (xinit) I get a momentary
     band of color then a blank screen followed by a warm boot.
     
     Does anyone have this conifguration working?
     
     
     Thanx in advance.
