I think you need to download the latest SVGA server from 
www.xfree86.org, I had to to support my G200, and it claims 
support for RivaTNT cards as well...

Speaking of which, I also downloaded the latest version 3 
XWindows, and seem to have had a successful install but lost my 
window manager (not that I know what I had before). However on 
the latest PCPlus mag there is 250Mb of mainly window managers, 
so i shall have a look at that. Also there is the full version of 
wordperfect 8 for linux...
(I don't know if magazine plugs are welcomed on this list, but I 
don't know how well known the PCPlus linux newbie series is, and 
thought some people might find it usefull...)

Hope this is OK,
Simon.
