Subject: Xconfig for TVGA 9000?

The subject says it all.  I've got a Trident TVGA 9000 card (I know
that it's not supported ;-) that I want to run X11R5 on.  All I want
is to run X, I don't care if fast or not and I assume that I can only
run it in straight VGA mode.  But I'm having troubles coming up with
an Xconfig for it.  Does anyone already have one?

I know that this is a bone-headed request, since the card is not
supported in accelerated modes by X386.  If it's not supported at all,
then please just say so.  No flames please.
