Using this single debian package worked, oddly enough! (1024x768 @ 32 bpp looks fine) Is there much difference between the pre-compiled binary from Xfree86 and the Debian package? Anyway, thanks!

However, I am getting poor performance, like 320x200x256. I have used both XF86Setup and xf86config without success. I have had no problems with Diamond and Matrox cards in the past, but this is my first AGP... I don't believe that makes a difference though. (let me know otherwise!) I did notice my Video and Network cards share the same IRQ, 9... Would this affect it? I have never been a PC hardware guru, but if this could be the problem, could someone give me a pointer, webpage, or HOWTO for resolving this?
