X: Using an unsupported graphics card

Request:

Your graphics card is not supported by XFree86. It is not possible or unwanted to buy a commercial X server for this card (provided that such a server is available).

Procedure:

It might nevertheless be possible to use this graphics card under S.u.S.E. Linux, if you treat it as a standard VGA device. However it will only be possible to use a resolution of max. 800x600 at a color depth of 4 bit (i.e. 16 colours) with a lot of flickering (max. 60 Hz screen refresh rate).

Please use the VGA16 X server, if you want to get access to this functionality (package xvga16, series x in YaST).

Have fun !
