nope. But it's there in the archives. I've seen this question come up
several times in the past. Ok. I've got an old message from the
"newbie" list awhile back dealign with SIS video cards. The
information's below:

Yours will look a bit different.
Option "noaccel" might be the right way to write it now
though. You could try some of the options Mandrake
suggests as well (one to a line)eg:
Option "nolinear"
Option "no_pixmap_cache"

As I say, this is discussing the SiS video chipsets, but it MAY be
relevant. If it doesn't help, take it back out -- no harm, no foul!
