After the initial redhat 6.2 install, I was able to run my Neomagic
card at 1024x768 16bit.  This laptop was and is using X3.3.6. I'm not
sure why the two of you are having problems, as I simply used
Xconfigurator to set this up.  So, RedHat 6.2's SVGA server must
contain support.  XF86Config available upon request, but it is a
vanilla config.
