At this point, the only hardware I know works well is MGA (which >I'm using right now). What kind of graphics card are you using? BTW, thanks for xfpatch :) S3 Virge (86C325).

I believe Andrew Gallatin did get XFree86 3.9.18 running on his AS200, but I have no idea as to what video card he was using.
