Have you tried the SVGA driver in Debian 2.2? The package name is xserver-svga. It's a generic driver, so it should work with your card, although it won't take full advantage of it. Do you know for certain that woody contains a driver specifically for your card? Upgrading to woody is pretty easy. If you already have Debian 2.2 installed, just modify your /etc/apt/sources.list file, replacing anything that says "stable" with "testing", then run "apt-get update" followed by "apt-get dist-upgrade". One problem area in the upgrade is the X server stuff. They switched to version 4 of Xfree86, and the package names have changed, possibly causing some problems after the upgrade. To fix this, after upgrading, run dselect, removing any remaining version 3 packages for the xserver, and select the version 4 packages. -- Kevin
