In my SiS 6236 card config file (/etc/X11/XF86Config) I have added
the line
Option "no_linear"
Option "sw_cursor"
as you can found in the README.SIS (find / -iname readme.sis)
First of this my X windows was black black and only icos was visible.
Attention because only 8 bpp colors depth are allow with "no_linear"
and gimps don't works
---------------------------------
My SiS6326 AGP was a problem because X was black and only the icons
was visible
Try to find newbie-digest the 3-4 old number to view all discussions.
The solution at my home was:
add the lines at /etc/X11/XF86Config in section device:
Options "nolinear" or "no_linear" I don't remember
Options "sw_cursor"
This implies that you can use only 8 bpp colors
Somebody resolve the problems using 24 bpp and low dot clocks
Other resolve adding "no_btlbit" e "no_btlimage" with all colors you
want
Probably you have to try "noaccel" too.
Use this command 'find / -iname readme.sis' and read the file
istructions
Probably you need 'man XF86Config' too.
Good work and feedback as if you found a solution.

I seen a better X when I've virually reduced mem at 4096k instead of
8Mb but at my home this don't work as solution but as helper.
I hope that a X-server more stable for SiS will be released
