You will probably want to go directly to the source for first hand information.

Here it is, in part.
This driver was primarily written for the SiS6326 and SiS530 by Alan Hourihane. It
also works on 5597/5598 chips, and probably on older SiS862X5 family.
The driver supports :
Linear Addressing
8/15/16/24 bits per pixel
Fully programmable clocks are supported
H/W acceleration and cursor support
XAA support (XFree86 Acceleration Architecture)
