First I had to deal with the problem of my et4000-vga did not work together 
with a ne2000 ethernet-card, then I gave up the struggle and bought myself a 
tvga8900c which works fine with the ne2000.
But murphy - does anybody know the E-mail adress of this fellow - lives.
It's impossible to use the tvga8900cl (more detail 53TT11/9253, A31211.1)
together with XFree86 X-Server in 1024x768i(nterlaced)-mode.
There are 1MB RAM on the tvga and several jumpers for "0-wait-state 
en/disable", "select scan rate" and "BIOS auto detect". To manipulate the
/etc/Xconfig file didn't help. And - of course this mode worked well 
with my old et4000!!!!
Please send suggestions to one of the following E-mail adresses, because I
can not read the news daily.

I 'm dispared (big sigh).
