Is that an older model? I believe that the CL-GD75xx support in XFree86
4 is worse than the support in XFree86 3.3 and that you may need to use
an XFree86 3.3 display server.
Either that, or you will need to use VESA framebuffer. Given the
advances in XFree86 since 3.3 this may be your best bet in any case.
Cheers,
Andrew.
