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.

Please, try to intersperse your message with the occasional \n 
(newline).  Preferrably around 60-70 chars a line.
