I am trying to get x windows to run and i am running into two problems.
First problem is that my card is a Number Nine FX Reality 332, and is not
supported by Xwindows. But, I know it uses the S3 Virge chipset. So far I
have not been able to get xwindows to recognize it. The second problem is
that everytime I type Startx it begins to run, and then errors out saying
No Screens Found. If anyone has any idea of what I should do please
respond.

Thanks,
ZboSe

What version of XFree86 are you using (if that is what you are using)?

I use XFree86 3.2 (http://www.xfree86.org/) with the same card
and it looks beautiful (make sure you get the correct binary for
your system, i.e., a-out or elf).

I am by no means a pro at linux but I would think you'd want to make
sure you're using the correct server for your card before using startx.

Good luck,
