I have a VGA-ULTRA svga-card with the ET4000 chipset and 1MB of memory, but
when I tried 'VMODE 3D' the following message appeared:
	The specified mode cannot be set due to insufficient video memory.
	This mode requires 1MB of video memory.
But as I said, I have 1MB of video memory!!!!! 1024x768x256 runs just fine.
Anybody knows what goes wrong here?

Marcel
