Hi All,
    Has anyone installed RH 5.2 with an S3 Trio 3D card yet ?

I have downloaded the latest version of X-Free 3.3.3 and cannot get anything
higher than 640x480 in 8bpp.  X-Free 3.3.3 only provides support for the
86C365 chipset in the VGA16 server.

This machine previously had a a Diamond Stealth card which had no problems
until it blew up and got replaced....

Has anyone been able to get this card to function using a different model
driver ?  I'm missing my Linux desktop.

Thanks
