Use the SVGA driver. Configure it using XF86Config and not the
graphical interface as the probe fails every time.

I found that I had to put the option no_linear, option no_bitblit in
before the card produced any workable results. 
I have only manged to run it at a low res because my monitor is not up
to the job but it does work at the lower resolutions.

Check out the README.SiS in the XFree86 document directory
/usr/X11R6/lib/doc

regards,
Ian
