  I am confused as to the subject of this debate, is it that the
Millenium won't work peroid, even with the SVGA server?  Or is it that
there will be no accelerated server for it?
  I have a millenium and a NEC 5FGe, and i can't get anything but
garbage to show up on my screen.  Is this because the Millenium is
downright incompatable with the SVGA server or is it my own fault for
setting it up wrong.  I have "generic" listed under chipset.
