Be interested to know if that 4MB s3 video card is a Virge VX PCI? I installed Sid recently on a machine with the s3 Virge/VX 4MB video card and was unable to get a display out of it. I tried both the s3 and the s3virge xservers. It would be interesting to know if someone else has gotten a working display out of this same card, and some details about how (e.g., which xserver, what version of XFree they used).
Without opening up the case, all I can do is consult my notes on the system. My notes just say:
PCI0: S3 Virge - 4MB - 86C325 (Card Type: 383)
I don't have that system hooked up right now. The keyboard cable and monitor cable that it uses to connect to my KV switch are currently attached to my Win-98 hardware testing station, which I am planning on firing up later this evening to see if I have Shorewall set up properly as a router.
