It's quite OK, no pixel or cursor garbage.

BUT: the 2D performance is quite mediocre. I won't say horrible -- I used
to have a 3D Blaster PCI (Rendition V1000 Verite). Now THAT was horrible.

Even at 800x600x85Hz 16bit the S3 Trio3d/2x has slow BLT performance --
opaque window moves are slow. This is not entirely the card's fault --
it's faster in Windoze by maybe 30% compared to X4.

I can hardly imagine what the performance would be at my preferred
resolution of 1152x900x32bit.  =)
