rpm -ivh XFree86-S3V*

Then issue this command to reconfigure the settings:

Xconfigurator --expert --preferxf3 --server XF86_S3V


The rpm command requires that you have the right CD in the drive.  The
one containing (assuming that it 7.3 contains version 3.6 as well as
4.x) the XFree86-S3V* files.

the Xconfigurator command puts with the preferxf3 option puts you in the
mode of setting up version 3.

Its worth doing just to see if you can do it.  Then again, the annoying
post xwindows garbling of text windows probably makes it worth while to
get a new card.  Of course, you have to find a card that works!

This is a fairly well-known problem, so I wonder if version 4.x will
ever get fixed.
