Hi Paul,
I have a Alliance Promotion AT3D 4Meg card on Slackware which uses
the same "apm" driver (I presume "amp" was a typo),the trick is to select
"no_accel" since it is a hardware accelerated card which does not require
software acceleration iirc.
An older monitor should work with DefaultDepth on 16.
below are relevant sections of my XF68Config file.
hth,
Keith.
