I've got a SiS 6205 PCI 1M SVGA card which has quite good acceleration and high dot. Before it I had S3 Trio32 PCI card which tends to be a bit worse. The problem is the usual: compatibility. While the card follows VESA standard and has drivers for ms windows etc SuperProbe says it is plain MCGA... :-( Any ideas how to use its acceleration with XFree? alexis -- Yesterday don't matter when it's gone
