Re: Configuring Xfree86 for X display

I would try one of two things.  First run SuperProbe and see what linux 
sees your card as.  Edit your XF86Config file to reflect what you have 
learned from the SuperProbe.  Second run the XF86Setup program check the 
video card data base to see if the card is in their.  If it is it will 
tell you the various settings you need to set to get it working.  
I hope this helps but if it doesn't don't blame me.  The usual disclamer.

 Hi good people
 I am new in the group and I a novice in the linux world. I would like to ask
 for help in configuring the X windows interface in linux. I have attempted but
 with no success. I have 200Mhz Gateway pc with an STB Virge/VX 4MB 3D PCI 
 video
 card. The Xfree86 display conf. file has a lot of STB chipset listing and I
 have no idea which one matches my card (no one specifies Virge/VX). I would
 appriciate you help on this one.

S3 ViRGE and ViRGE/VX chips are supported by the S3V server.  See
