Hello All!!

 I have successfully upgraded my 1.1.5.1 system to 2.1.0 SNAP and
even have X running!!!!! (With the MOUSE!!) 

 My question at this point is:
I have a Tseng/W32 PCI VGA Card which doesnt seem to agree with
X completely.  By that i mean with the XF86_SVGA driver linked to X,
I get a fair amount of little horizontal lines and .'s that appear all over 
the screen, like its got the measles of something...  If I use the VGA16 
driver instead, the lines go away OK but then I cant run SimCity!!!!!!!

Is there a known problem with the card/driver? does anyone have a fix?

The rest of the machine is a i486DX4-100 on a SoYo MB PCI/ISA with 16Mb RAM 
and 1Gb Micropolis HDD with an adaptec 1542b. I am running 2.1.0 950726 SNAP.

The XF86_W32 doesnt work at all!! It hangs the entire system nicely!!


Thank you!
