It took me a while to get the settings right, 
I have a SiS on board Video Card. I have no Idea what kind, the stupid 
MB did not come with it and the tech supp were no help.
And I have a Gatway Crystal Scan 1024 NI

I got the SuSe server for SiS and the Config prog also.
However, I still cant get it to do better that 8bpp..
here is the sections of the config file.
Will someone forward it to the right place so it gets included in the 
documentation, like the moitor section need to be added to the Monitor
file that comes with the X server,
thanks,
