I dont know about the new x-server, my install of 7.3 went fairly smooth, in fact it went great. I was impressed. I do know that if you increase the colors the resolution must decrease if your card runs out of processor power. I have a S3 Virge(4Mb) in a box that will run 1024x768 just fine at 64K, go up to 16M and it will max out at 800x600. So I guess see if reducing the colors helps.
