I don't know, but I assume you can use your Viper in non-accelerated mode. (wild guess, check first!!!) My advice to you would be to get the XFree86 distribution and read the text files that pertain to configuration. They list exactly what you need. I'd post them, but I'm not near my NetBSD machine. g'luck Mark -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Willey 916-356-1024 Intel Corporation, FM2-48 mwilley@pcocd2.intel.com 1900 Prairie City Rd, Folsom, CA 95630 I speak for myself, not Intel. ------------------------------------------------------------------------
