You can sort of get it working be upgrading to the latest XFree86 (I
tried 3.3.3).  But it didn't work all that well even then when I tried
some months ago.  (it required some not-well documented config options
in XF86Config, and even then, I was not able to get it to do 1280x1024
at more than 8bpp).  I don't think I saved my notes about what those
config options were -- you can probably find them by doing some
altavista and dejanews searches with the string "6326 xfree86".

I bought a Matrox Millenium G200 instead and have been quite happy with it.
