Had a few problems with the Cirrus 64xx in my laptop. 640x480 had
graphics problems and 800x600 would only turn the screen into a pale
blue light. The annoying fix I finally found was to switch the SVGA card
interface from internal (LCD) to external (Monitor) and back again.

I think this has been fixed in newer X releases.
