As thorsten sugested these lines added to the video-card-section of the
XF86Config file are crucial for getting the neomagic chip to work under X:
Option "XaaNoScanlineImageWriteRect"
Option "XaaNoScanlineCPUToScreenColorExpandFill"
With Xserver v3 these lines are not necessary (nor possible) and
XFree86-SVGA works just fine.
(My problem with v3 was due to extrem stupidity related to the mouse/touchpad)
have a nice (mon)day
