Subject: 8514/a driver for XFree86 yet? (ATI Ultra?)

I was scanning through the XFree86 README Files  today and some various FAQs,
and it mentioned a couple of times that the ATI Ultra Cards were not supported
by them.

I was just wondering if anybody HAS written some drivers that will let me
use the 8514 mode of the ATI GU+, or if there are, in fact, already mach8
and mach32 drivers...?

I would like to run X, but this is seems to put a damper on things.


Any help would be appreciated.

ToodlepiP!
