Hello,
is there an ftp site where i can find an XF86Config file for
an S3 video card ?
Thanks in advance.

You're better off using xf86config to generate a XF86Config file. There are
portions of XF86Config that are system specific other than your video card. I
believe the xf86config script is in /usr/X11/bin or /usr/X11/lib/X11/bin or
something similar - you could do a "find /usr/X11 -name xf86config -print" to
find the script.
