8bit VESA works well--thanks very much Tomppa!  I'll look into trying the newest
when I get a chance.  I'll post the results.

XFree86 4.3.0 doesn't support Trident Cyberblade so well yet.  Only
usable mode is 8bit graphics with VESA-driver.  About month ago
Trident support went XFree86 cvs but I have't tried it yet.
