Well, it was a cheap way of getting 1024x768x24 to run.

Yeah, cheap and virtually unwalkable way. :)

Were there any Tsengs ET6K with exactly 2048Kb?

Hmm. Sounds as if you might have had a partly bad card or something
as well. I seem to remember that specifying the videoram was the
_only_ way to make it work for a while.

Just opposite of my case. :) But my adapter *is* a cheapo design (Eagle ET6000).

I also never succeeded in adding video memory to my ET6000 adapter. :)

That would probably be a challenge, yes. You would have to remove the
MDRAMs and replace them with new ones, and probably do some other
modifications as well.

Not quite like that. There are two square MDRAMs and sockets for two more of them. But I'd never found pair of MDRAMs which'd match mine adapter. :)

So what is the XFree86-W32-3.3.6 doing there? Is its presence of any
significance?

Should be none whatsoever. Just an added binary in /usr/X11R6/bin
that is not being run. :) But I don't use Mandrake, so I don't know
what influence it might have on the configuration tools etc.

My point exactly.
