What version of RedHat are you using? 6.0 and later support both Mach32 and
64 cards. The standby when you get this sort of problem is to use SVGA16
Xserver which is quite a handy server. To get to it you need to use
XF86Setup and from the list of servers choose SVGA16 as the server to use.
You may need to install it first. In fact you probably do not have the
Mach64 server installed in the first place so you might install that too!
