Gee, sounds familiar - only my poison is the ATI Mach64 (the GX variant)
running at home;  won't work with 3.1.2, but is fine with the betas (F at
the moment, need to upgrade .. again).

'course not!  Which reminds me - I'm running XFree86 3.1.2 (no beta) on
this Linux 2.0.10 box at the moment, using an S3 Trio 64V+ card (at work);
is it just the FreeBSD port of 3.1.2 that won't work on the Trio 64?

Cheers..
