'scuse me? Just about ALL linux distibutions come with the S3 accelerated X
server included. Since I've been using both 911 and 924 adaptors, I can say
it works just fine for both.

You NEED, however, take a look at the on-board RAMDAC in order to tell
xf86config what's going on (SOME RAMDACs are autodetected, but I had one
case where it wasn't, and it was good I wrote the ID down before I closed
the cabinet... quite some work to get it unwired again :-)
