I believe the solution may be to install the Xfree 3.x server instead of 4.0.
I ran into a similar problem with Mach64 2meg cards--they work fine at
1024x768 and 16 bit color with 3.x, but I can't get more than 256 color (8
bit) with 4.x. The default install puts in the 4.x Xserver.

that. X erver 4.0 still has some bugs in it.

The problem is that your X-server does not allow other users applications to

To solve this, you start your X-server, and type in 'xhost +' (without

What is your version of XFree ?
You should try Mandrake 6.1 - XFree 3.3.5 has got a server for i740 (I don't know
exactly, but Xfree 3.3.4 should have it too)

If your using 6.0 you can use the XBF server. I believe it is located in
the /apps folder on the cd. Just follow the instructions in the readme
file. Version 6.1 has support built in. It has several different i740
cards listed, as well as a generic agp and pci i740.

You have to change a 3 to a 5 in the /etc/inittab file in order
