This card is supported by the 3.2 S3 server (not the S3V, but just the
plain S3). You could've figured this out on your own by grepping for the
name of your card in /usr/X11/lib/X11/doc. This directory contains all the
information about supported cards and what to do if your card is
unsupported... If you don't know what grep is, man grep.
And no, this is not a flame. (apparently some people on this list are
hypersensitive, tell someone to go RTFM and give them the directions and
they start crying...)
