Odd - my machine's got a 6326 AGP and it works fine in '95, NT5 and X.
except with a tendency to block out text on odd occasions. I'm using the
SVGA driver, with the memory manually set to 4096k instead of 8192 - I
don't know why that works, but it does, all other options as defaults, no
problem at 1024x768 16bpp (or is it 24, it's been a bit since I set it
up).
