Xi Graphics made SiS 5598 support available on September 14th, joining
the previously supported SiS 6326.  Configurations for 1, 2, 3 and 4MB
are supported.

This motherboard integrated graphics chipset was benchmarked on Pentium
66MHz system, with 4MB SDRAM.  Xi Graphics was unable to test the
XFree86 Server (XF86_SVGA) on this motherboard.

  Color Depth  ->   8bpp        16bpp        24bpp
  Resolution   ->   1280x1024   1280x1024    1024x768
  Refresh Rate ->   85          75           60

	Xmark  ->
Xaccel              12          9            6

The SiS 5598 is not capable of supporting overlays but does support
hardware gamma color correction in all color depths.  Maximum supported
resolution is 1600x1200@60Hz in 8bpp, and 1024x768@75Hz in 24bpp
(packed) operation.  Hardware cursor is supported in all color depths. 
The Accelerated-X Server conforms to the X Window System as measured by
the freely available X Test Suite.

The update, which should be applied against the desktop (AX version)
Accelerated-X Server version 4.1.2, is available from the Xi Graphics
Anon-FTP site at URL:

	ftp://ftp.xig.com/pub/updates/accelx/desktop/4.1.2/D4102.013.tar.gz

Instructions for applying the update and more detail may be found in the
URL:

	ftp://ftp.xig.com/pub/updates/accelx/desktop/4.1.2/D4102.013.txt

The update may be applied to the freely available Accelerated-X demo at
URL ftp://ftp.xig.com/pub/demos/AX412.Linux.tar.gz for customer testing
prior to purchase of the product.

Cheers, JeremyC.
