Hi, I have a 4mb diamond 3d s3 virge video card. From XFree86.org, I read that "1280x1024 at 24/32 bpp for a 4 Meg".
However, I can only achieve 16 at 1024x768. When I try -bpp 24, I get the following output: virge:/home/s2193893# X -bpp 24 :1 XFree86 Version 3.3.2.3 / X Window System (protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6300) Release Date: July 15 1998 If the server is older than 6-12 months, or if your card is newer than the above date, look for a newer version before reporting problems.
