I was successful in getting the Diamond Banshee card up and running
with the Linux binary X server using Linux emulation.  The trick was
creating the virtual consoles the Linux server wanted in /dev as links
to the actual virtual consoles in the system.  The only problem was
that any attempt to switch to a different virtual console while the
X-server was running froze the cosole.

There may be a better way to get this working, but it was beyond my
expertise to figure out what .
