That's interesting. 

I've got another card arriving via eBay so I might give that a try when it
arrives. I really bought it as a spare incase I blew the current one up too.

SVGATextMode and twin are now working so I can get large terminal windows
(which is the point of X-windows anyway isn't it?) so that's a start :-)
