well, tracked down the latest drivers (OK, OK, they're old) at
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.viaarena.com/default.aspx?PageID=420&OSID=18&CatID=2080&SubCatID=111">http://www.viaarena.com/default.aspx?PageID=420&OSID=18&CatID=2080&SubCatID=111</a>,
and installed them.<br>
<br>
didn't make any difference, still can't change the resolution above
800x600, what step(s) am I missing? in fact, after changing the video
card type to s3 savage4/savage, it reverted back to VESA driver
(generic). obviously I've screwed up some where<br>
<br>
any and all help is appreciated<br>

Len - Thx for the tips. Of course rh8 is long in the tooth, but what
do they say: so many distros, so little time?<br>
<br>
Thx regardless, will let you know how I make out.<br>

can find one? Apparently the motherboard has "chip-integrated
ProSavage4 graphics".
I'm running rh8. Thx very much.

Try something MUCH newer than that old junk. There should be a driver
if you have xfree86 4.x or newer called savage.
Don't run distributions that are older than your hardware.
