Same problem with Trident here. I finally downloaded XSVGA.tgz 3.3.3.1 from
one of the Free86 ftp mirrors and replaced the Xserver of the 3.3.5 deps.
It was a huge performance boost to use Option "accel" again.  Without accel
it's just a pain :)

Ohh, wait I use 32ppp, 16bbp did not work with 3.3.3.1 for me.

Support for this card seems to have been comprehensively broken in recent X
releases (starting with 3.3.4). I've only used it on a potato system so I
can't say anything about earlier releases. I currently have it working quite
well with the 3.3.5 SVGA server, but only in 16bpp and with acceleration
turned off (Option "noaccel" in Section "Device" in XF86Config).

Trident 3dImage975 and X

1999-10-13 Thread Nathan Smith 
Hello all:

I have what I hope is a quick question.  I'm having trouble getting X to
work using the SVGA server with my Trident 3DImage 975 Card.  The VGA 16
server works fine, but as you can imagine looks slightly less beautiful
than I would like.

I'm using the X that came with Slink, although I upgraded to potato and
tried the updated X Windows there with similar results.  So now I'm back
to Slink.  I've read the README files and can find nothing there to help
me.

The quick question is:  Has anyone run into this or a similar problem and
fixed it.  If not, then here's the output:


XFree86 Version 3.3.2.3 / X Window System
(protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6300)

If the server is older than 6-12 months, or if your card is newer
than the above date, look for a newer version before reporting
problems.  (see http://www.XFree86.Org/FAQ)
