This is exactly the case. I have the card mentioned in the original post, and 
it 
works well wih potato. The problem is that this card is not supported in
the X version that comes with slink. It's supported since version 3.3.3.
You can also install a recent version on top of slink if you don't want to
upgrade.

Have you tried to use the latest version of XFree86 ( 3.3.6 ) and the
XF86_Mach 64 x- server ?

You may get these at :  http://www.debian.org/~vincent

Put this URI only in /etc/apt/sources.list :

deb http://www.debian.org/~vincent/ xfree-update main

Then,  apt-get update

   apt-get upgrade

   apt-get install xserver-mach64

apt-get clean



Cheers,

You could try using Potato, it supported my Graphical Card (Viper 770)
where Slink didn't.
