Which X server are you using? The default X server in
Slackware 8.1 is designed for VESA cards -- but not the
old VESA cards. There is a cut-off point, but I don't
remember what it is. 1.2 ? 2.0 ?
You say you have an S3 Trio 64V+ video card. I believe
this card is VESA 1.2. That VESA may be too old to work
with the default X server. If so, try the S3 X server
from the /pasture directory of Slackware 8.1.
Cheers,
Steven
