I may be beginning to detect a sulphurous whiff too. The vicious
XF86Configurator still refuses to let me have more than 8 bits colour depth.
Following the advice I got here I've made various adjustments to
/etc/X11/XF86Config, most resulting in fatal X server errors - 'no default 8
mode' etc. I have a listed monitor, so the refresh rates are ok, (I've
checked them), the 4mb of vid memory is recognised. And after all my S3
Virge is probably the world's most common video card. All worked fine with
rh5.2.

Am I right in believing that XF86Setup was developed by the X Consortium
itself? In which case why doesn't it appear in the rh6.1 distro?
