lspcidrake gives this information for the video card:

Card:NeoMagic (laptop/notebook): Neomagic Corporation|[MagicGraph 256AV] 
[DISPLAY_VGA] (vendor:10c8 device:0005 subv:1014 subd:0137)

The name "MagicGraph" is correct, according to IBM's specifications for the 
390X (and also Windows XP's driver info). After a visit to NeoMagic's Flash-
heavy site, however, I see that they consider the 256AV to be a part of their 
MagicMedia line.

Hmm.

Anyway, I see now that I shouldn't have expected XFDrake to identify it 
as "MagicMedia" after all. Instead, perhaps an entry for "MagicGraph 
(laptop/notebook)"?

description: 
When using XFDrake (and during the install), my ThinkPad 390X's video card
appears to be correctly identified automatically.

However, there are two similar-but-different choices among the four under the
NeoMagic heading: "(laptop/notebook)" and "MagicMedia (laptop/notebook)". On
initial install, "MagicMedia (laptop/notebook)" is automatically selected.

However when returning later in XFDrake, "(laptop/notebook)" is always selected
upon load. No matter how often I change the setting to "MagicMedia
(laptop/notebook)" and save, upon returning to XFDrake the shorter entry is
selected instead.

This may be purely cosmetic; I haven't looked at the configuration files to see
if the underlying settings actually differ. However, because XFDrake is aimed at
a less-experienced audience, this behavior should probably be corrected.

This bug has been around since release 9.0, but I thought I'd bring it up now
since 9.2 is the "tidy things up" release.
