If not, then here's the output:
Support for this card seems to have been comprehensively broken in recent X releases (starting with 3.3.4). I've only used it on a potato system so I can't say anything about earlier releases. I currently have it working quite well with the 3.3.5 SVGA server, but only in 16bpp and with acceleration turned off (Option "noaccel" in Section "Device" in XF86Config). Frank
