Howdy folks!

I've installed RedHat 7.2 (Linux 2.4.7) onto a PC-104 embedded board.
It has a Chips&Technologies CT69000 graphics controller on board.
Installed is GNome.
When I start it up, Gnome has problems and I end up it text mode.
The problems report a fatal server error: Signal 11
I've reported this to xfree86.org but have received no reply as of yet.

While waiting for a reply, I was messing around and found the XF86_SVGA
server and it immediately went into graphics mode, but didn't load GNOME.  I
got that "Thatched" screen and an "X" for the mouse-cursor.  Obviously it
works, in some way.  But nothing else happens.  So I escape by doing the
Control-Alt-Backspace thing.

Can someone explain to me what that XF86_SVGA is?
Can I use it to run GNOME?
If so, how?

I'm new to XF86 and to Linux as a whole, so please be patient.

Kind regards,
Carlos
