Problem Solved!
It took two things to manually change in the XF86Config-4 file...
(1) BusID "PCI:0:8:0" was added right after driver "s3" in
"Device" section referring to the video card. This was an absolute
MUST in my system.
(2) Changed the default depth from 24 to 8.

Dear all,

In /etc/X11/XF86Config-4, I have the following settings.

You could try chedking the hardware compatibility list to see if your
video card is listed as supported hardware.
You might try /usr/X11R6/bin/xf86config or xf86cfg and walk through the
configuration selecting as a first step a bog standard vga
configuration.

Hi,

I have an AMD 1900+, AbitKR7A-133 motherboard and a Club3D ATI RADEON

I've tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86, but that doesn't help very

In your "Monitor" section of XF86Config-4, try putting:
Option "IgnoreEDID" "on"
and/or don't load the "vbe" module. I'm not sure what these are
about, however.
I'm using XF86Config rather than XF86Conf

Hi Jeff;

Get the basics of XFree86 from Debian

3. xlib6g

When I try to run the preinstall script for xfree86, it says:
"It appears that you have an a.out system. a.out binaries are not

Is this correct? If not, how am I supposed to install xfree86?
