Could be a bad driver set, or a not-so-true S3 reference board.
BUT: One thing I would do (especially if it is a Trio 3D x2) - is to look at
the Xfree homepage under FAQs.
I vaguely remember having to set some 'tweak' setting in the config file
regarding the Timing chip on the card to get it to work properly with X.
Mine was on an Octek Reference Board.
