At the moment, I'm not looking for an accel >server, just the ability to get Xwindows running. Yes. I've got the Imagine 128-S2. It works with the XFree86 3.2 server or the 3.2A beta server (neither of which is accelerated). I bought the Accelerated-X server from Xi Graphics (formerly Xinside), but haven't been satisfied. It has some minor annoyances like broken colormaps and wandering pixmaps, and some major problems like leaving the keyboard in an unusable state (requiring a power-cycle) after its not-infrequent-enough crashes.
