Now edit your /etc/X11/XF86Config, search for "Xconfigurator"
the device stanza below this is you card, there will be something to the
effect of "# VideoRam 32768" (note it currently probably sayss 8megs
not 32) remove the comment "#", verify the number is set for 32Megs (as
above) save exit and try the Xserver now.
