I had some problems with it locking up XDM and other random
freezes. For now, I am running the SVGA server (quite successfully)
and it is almost as fast as the W32 server. The w32 server is still 
rather new, I know that hercules sent the writer of the server a card
to experiment here a couple of months ago, however I have not been
following the updates to that server lately, cause the SVGA is still
fairly nice. only annoying thing is the screenblank goes all white
instead of all black.
any other ?'sssss,
let me know.....
