Hello,
I was the original poster.  What I have, is a just purchased , Xpert 128 PCI 
16MB card.  I have tried  the r128 driver, which sax2 wants to use with the 
XF_SVGA server....which I gather, is as it's supposed to be.....from reading 
info at XFree.org.  However, I have seen no specific reference to PCI 
versions, only AGP.  I don't know if this is significant or not.  I also use 
a 3D Rage Pro and an Xpert 98 in other machines (w/Linux) and they work OK 
with the Mach64 server.  The Xpert 98 however, can't use any 3D...pity.  
Anyway, the Xpert 128 does not function for me...and I gather for others 
either....even though it is supposedly supported by v4.03.  I *would* 
appreciate your config file, to see what's what.  Thanks a lot!
Tom
