Perhaps -- and it's only a guess! -- you've got "vesa" driver configured to take care of your adapter (I, for myself, do not recall any success of using "vesa" driver from 4.* with S3 Trio64's here). But line "no devices detected..." rather denies this posibility...
You'll have to send more info here!

Hi everyone,
I am very new to linux and really the IT industry. Im currently
studying network engineering, we have only completed our first semester. I
have installed linux 8.0 on a separate hard drive on my computer. My
computer is very old. Its a P1 200mmx with 256mb SDRAM. The video adapter is
a S3 Trio64v2-dx/gx (775/785) Memory 2mb.
The install went fine and did everything it should have. When
you reboot the bootloader works fine and allows u to choose either linux or
dos. It then runs through a sequence saying everything is ok. when it tries
to display the GUI interface for login and password it is distorted. After
