I've got the ASUS PCI-V264CT one (same thing, I'd guess). Neither the distributed Mach64 X server, nor the distributed SVGA X server will work with it for me. At the moment, I'm using the VGA16 X server, which works fine but is rather slow and pokey (and, of course, VGA). If you have a look at http://www.xfree86.org and find the FAQ, you will see that you need a BETA X server for all 'CT' Mach 64s. I did just try that BETA X server, but it didn't work -- however, I didn't have time to look into it much farther, so I could well have done something wrongly. > > Eugene Minkevitch.
