Since Diamond has the habit of assigning a single name to vastly
different pieces of hardware, just ``Diamond Stealth VRAM'' is too
less information to answer the question.

If i'm not mistaken, XFree86(tm) 3.1.2 is supporting the S3 86C964 and
86C764-based boards.  Refer to the XFree86 docs for the exact
information.
