Try the 3.3.6 driver (xf86-svga IIRC). This is the only thing I could
make work for the Tecra 780 which has an s3virge/mx. This was also the
case with SuSE 7.3. Basically the XF86 4.x drivers for the s3virge
series seems to have serious problems for the portable versions.
The other thing I've been meaning to try is to give the refresh rates a
list of fixed frequencies as drawn from the manual rather than the range
from min to max as deduced from the allowed modes list in the manual.
