I think there's a bug in the acceleration code of the s3 driver. When scrolling (with 
acceleration enabled), only parts of the screen that become newly visible really get 
visible, the screen doesn't scroll up. XaaNoScreenToScreenCopy option solves it.

For your information:
kernel: linux-2.5.6
lspci reports:
00:12.0 VGA compatible controller: S3 Inc. 86c768/765 [Trio32/64/64V+] (rev 53)

        Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster- SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping-

        Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 11

        Expansion ROM at dbff0000 [disabled] [size=64K]

hm, kernel in linux-2.6.5, but i am piping this text into 'mail', can't undo...

Is there anyone who knows how to solve this?
