Does anyone have an xqa file for a Spider Tarantula MK II with 2M? Or
can anyone point me in the right direction? It's an S3 chip (86C968).
I'm running AcceleratedX 1.2, so the 968 should be supported, but when I
run xinit, I get a cursor with (usually) a black background and no
colors whatsoever. I must be close because I can run xearth and see it
flash in the background when I kill the Xserver. Also, running Xsetup
after xinit with my xqa file causes a core dump. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
