Can I run with a Diamond Stealth with S3 968

Can I run with a Diamond Stealth with S3 968

Post by Bernard La » Sat, 13 May 1995 04:00:00



I need a fast video and apparently the Diamond Stealth with S3 968 is
a good choice.

  But:
  - Xfree will not be available for it for another few weeks.
  - I am constrained to buy fast and check my system immediatly.

Question:
  If I buy a Diamond with S3 968, will I be able to run X, and check
my system. I would be happy with X running temporarily in SVGA
resolution, or another degraded mode.

  Alternative, is there a real cheap video card that one would advise
to run my system while waiting for the Diamond to be usable.

Thanks for any suggestion.

1. Diamond Stealth S3 Vision 968 aka Diamond GT

I've tried to figure out how to set up this video card for X, but with
no success.  I think I've read every FAQ on the Web, and still I
haven't gotten X-Windows running.  I need to know how to set up the
config file for a Diamond Stealth S3 Vision 968 with 2Mb VRAM.  While
I'm on the topic, my monitor is a Sony Multiscan 17sf.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
