Hi Anthony,
Try adding the following line to the Device section of the
/etc/X11/XF86Config file:
Option "no_bitblt"
The second and better solution is to visit the Suse web site at
www.suse.de/en and search for the Xsis X server. Install this on your
system and then create a symlink to it from
/usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_SVGA to /usr/X11R6/bin/XFCom_SiS. Remove the
Option "no_bitblt" from your XF86Config file (placing a hash # sign
in front will rem it). It ought to work perfectly with full acceleration
and high resolution.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Steve
