Probably not. You're confused by the old Diamond hassles, Jordan.
From the README.S3 (searching for all occurences of the word
`Diamond'), vanilla XFree86 3.1.1:
S3 805, Diamond SS2410 RAMDAC, ICD2061A Clockchip
Diamond Stealth 24 VLB
8 bpp only
requires Option "nolinear"
S3 964, AT&T Bt485 RAMDAC, ICD2061A Clockchip
Diamond Stealth 64
8, 15/16, 24(32) bpp
