I have a i740 based card.  I upgraded my card to BIOS 2.33 which didn't run

with version 0.9-10 of the server (well, actually it did but there was
screen corruption and the dreaded whitebox around the mouse pointer).  Make
sure you get version 1.0 of the server.  I got mine from the Precision
site.

Hope that helps,
Paul
