It was once necessary to download a special driver for it, but now the driver is included in the Xfree_SVGA drivers(don't use the VESA driver). XFree version 4.1 should have no trouble with it. If the problem persists either get the latest version of XFree or go back to the last of version 3 (3.3.6 If I recall) and use Xfree_SVGA.
