I am running RedHat Linux 6.2, which is 2.2.14-5.0, on a 466 MHz Celeron with 128 M RAM and a Sis 6236 AGP card. Win98 was running nicely on this system. The Linux dmesg only says "Console: colour VGA+ 80x25; nothing about the proprietary card. I don't know the significance of that. I downloaded the source for XFree 4.2.0, configured and compiled and after some fiddling around everything looked good until...
