What sort of info are you looking for?  I have a 2.1.7 machine running
on a 3D 2000 4mb.  Runs great.  XF86Config was pretty straight
forward.  Just set the chipset to S3Virge, set your video ram, and
everything else as probe (unless they changed things with the new
XFree86.)  I will be upgrading to 2.2.2 within the month after I get a
new HD and a NIC for that machine.
