Yes I was. What I found is that /etc/XF86Config-4 is some sort of
overide config file. XFree86 will try to load whatever card driver is
in that file as opposed to what you have entered into XF86Config. I
mv'd it and the proper driver loaded right off the bat. I have no idea
how a Rage 128 Pro card got entered. Never had one and none of my
configuration attempts has recreated the -4 file. Very strange.
The clue was in /var/log/messages. The X server was stopping
unexpectedly. /var/log/gui was showing some old XF3.3.6 stuff and
there was nothing in /var/log/XFree86.0.log.
