yes, i do. v. 3 of X
I use a trident vid card with my old comp... if you are talking about
the old video card, you are supposed to use XF86 v. 3.x. Although
perhaps in the future maybe you can use XF86 v. 4 since Bryan mentioned
that v. 4 "doesn't have as many drivers as v. 3" (or something like
that, hope i didn't misquote him).... which leads me to believe that
v.4 might be all-encompassing in the future. As of SuSE 7.2, old cards
were supposed to use v. 3 of X.
