I�ve installed the Brazilian version of redhat (conectiva guarani) and
everything should be right, since it comes with xfree86 3.3.3.1 and the
video card is  listed there. My problem is that I prefer using 1024x768
truecolor (24bit) video mode, and what I got was 800x600 at 16 bit. If this
were my only problem, I wouldn�t mind and wait till the next release of
xfree. But what I get is the above resolution and color depth, but my screen
shrinks and I have to go with the mouse pointer to the edges of the screen.
I like the virtual screen, but my real screen is too small (I�ve got a 14"
monitor), so I would like to use its real capacity. I�ve already gone
through the XF86Config file and all virtula screens are disabled (with a #
before the line). Can the problem be my monitor that is a bit old (Samtron
SC428VS). Has anybody used this card without problems? Oh, my box is a PII
300 with 64MB of ram.
