Your XFree86.0.log file shows next part: >(--) PCI:*(0:8:0) S3 Inc. 86c764/765 [Trio32/64/64V+] rev 0,
Saying as much as: Identified a S3 .. card at PCI slot 0:8:0. As it has identified
it as a S3/Trio32 card you should use the driver for that card.

thank's for your reply...
From what you wrote I am not sure exactly what it is I should do. Are you
saying I should change the line of my XF86Config-4 where to say Trio64??
Sorry I couldn't understand the procedure..
TIA
