The S3 ViRGE is not supported by MetroX, and I saw a post from someone
else who spoke with them about it and they seemed unwilling to do
anything about it.

It is supported under Accelerated X just fine, I'm using a 4 meg card
now in 1280x1024. But, Accelerated X is $99.95 which is the bummer since
you get Metro bundled with RH 4.0

Cheers,
Chris
