Not true.  The new Diamond Stealth II S220 based on the Verite' 2100
chip does not work even with xserver-svga.  It seems unlikely that
drivers will become available for it in the near future so watch out
for it.

I got caught in the situation of ordering a machine with the Diamond
Stealth thinking I would get the S3 card only to get this new Verite'
card.
