Use version 3.2 and you won't have problems.

Why not? Mine does. (PCI Diamond Stealth video 2001)

XFree86 even has specific support for my card in the version supplied with
RH4.1 but even if they don't list your specific card, the generic S3
support works just as well.

On account of how Diamond have a habit of making a whole bunch of completely
different cards, sometimes with the same names as each other. There are at
least two versions of the Diamond Stealth 64 DRAM, that I know of, which
different chipsets on board.

Nonetheless, I think the Trio 64 based one will work.

Roddy,

I am using the same configuration, and have no problems. Enven X runs very
nice in 16/24 bit mode.
