Mooi'n dag ok, Eduard, thanks for your hints, but (not to feed on any cheese of honour) my card really is an ET4000_W32 and it works pretty sharp in "1024x768" mode; my text mode "100x37x9_SVGA" works brilliant. (Perfect for 'mutt' with "syntax on" in '/etc/vim/vimrc') Of course, changing graphical contents is a bit slow, but I would't do without my higher resolution text mode. So I'd appreciate any information about identifying PCI-based graphic cards being either SVGA-compatible or VESA2.0 compliant.
