well, that's part of the problem. I'm trying to do this the easy way ( boot
off floppy, install from CD ),
but GNOME install and Custom install ( in GUI mode ) do an auto-detect of
the S3 ( no option to choose otherwise).
Haven't tried others ( KDE), but I'd assume the video-detect is the same
routine. Maybe I should try RH 5.2 ( at least that gave option to select
lowest common denominator).

Given your problems with the monitor/video chip set, have you tried
installing the vga16 & XF86Setup rpm's from the distro? If not,
give it a go. Often a bit easier for getting started.
