Problem Configuring X with Mach64 Card



I am unable to configure X (3.1.2) under Slackware Linux 3.0 (1.2.13) 
for my ATI Graphics Xpression (2Mb DRAM) card.

XF86_MONO and XF86_VGA16 work fine and I can enter X.

XF86_SVGA refuses to enter X and the following comments seem relevant:

Mach64 detected but VGA Wonter capability cannot be enabled.
videoram: 64k

BTW, these comments apear also with the two previous drivers.

XF86_MACH64 results in a blank screen from which I cannot escape; the 
computer, however, is not locked as ALT-CTRL-DEL reboots safely.

Please reply by E-mail; I will post a summary of findings.


Ta,
