I have an RTVGA3106 1mb, and have yet to make X386 work as delivered. I
can use Xega or use the X386mono servers though. At the moment, I'm
using the mono version because of that "can't set default path to
~lib/fonts/misc/fixed" hassle. (I have tried mkfontdir and all the rest,
but no matter what, I still can't seem to come up with a 'fixed' file.)
(?)

Anyway, if you locate an Xconfig that talks to the color X386 server,
I'd *really* like to hear about it.
