Alex (and all),

What ChipID would you like me to try?  Other people with similar laptops
(I have a Compaq Presario 900z) have reported limited success in the 4.2
series using ChipID 0x4242 (with NoAccel), but this doesn't work for
me.  In 4.2, X doesn't find the device.  In 4.3 betas, that chip id
allows X to start, but the system locks up if I try to start any
applications or zap X (Ctrl+Alt+Bcksp).  Further, X doesn't draw to part
of the screen.  The stipple pattern is missing from the first 2.5 or 3.5
rows of pixels.

Thank you,

--Nik Melchior
