Hmmm...well, then, you need the SVGA server (I believe I'm correct on
this) and should know that CL cards aren't that well supported by X yet
(at least last I heard). It's worth a shot, though. Does the X config
utility work fine and the chipset is in there?
Try a few things:
* Specify a non-accelerated server (SVGA I believe).
* Try to specify a generic setup with no specific chipset.
If neither of those work, then yell really loud and maybe someone will buy
you a new card just to get you to be quiet :-) (just kidding).
