The problem was the compiled kernel DRM in 2.6.11 doesn't work with the Unichrome S3 I rebuilt a new kernel, editing 'make menu config' and removing devices>character devices>DRM performed the Unichrome accelerator install cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/cvs/dri login cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/cvs/dri co -D 2004-10-28 drm cd into linux-core make mkdir /lib/modules/2.6.11.8/kernel/drivers/char/drm copy via.ko drm.ko /lib/modules/2.6.11.8/kernel/drivers/char/drm modprobe via rpm -Uvh of http://www.kingcot.eclipse.co.uk/unichrome/fc3/xorg-x11-via_drv-2005.04.12-1.fc3.i386.rpm rpm -Uvh of http://www.kingcot.eclipse.co.uk/unichrome/fc3/xorg-x11-libviaXvMC-2005.04.12-1.fc3.i386.rpm rpm -Uvh of http://www.kingcot.eclipse.co.uk/unichrome/fc3/libXvMCW-0.9.3-11.i386.rpm rpm -Uvh of http://www.kingcot.eclipse.co.uk/unichrome/fc3/xorg-x11-via_3ddrv-2005.04.04-1.fc3.i386.rpm tried to update xorg.conf to contain http://www.kingcot.eclipse.co.uk/unichrome/fc3/xorg.conf.txt but X didn't start.
