I have a Diamond Systems "Viper PCI" video card w/ 2MB on board.  I am 
trying to setup XFree86 3.1, but I can't find out what the port address 
is.  Every time I enter "startx" at the command prompt, X reads the 
config file and then prints up a message "!#$^@#^ Port Address required 
for extended IO."  How can I find out what the port address is?  I've 
looked through the manual inside and out and haven't found anything.

Anybody have any ideas?
