I get white flickering while in console mode on the left hand side of
the screen. This may be caused by interference coming from another
electronic device on my desk. I move some things around and see what
happens.

I'm using the SVGA server that was installed by the install script on
my shuttle CDROM. Yes, beleive it or not, they do have linux drivers for
their on board video. The chip is an S3. X wouldn't work until I installed
them. The manual says 4 to 32 MB frame buffer using system memory. Does
that mean that you can specify that your card has 32 MB of RAM when
configuring X?
