I tried an Inno3D Geforce 2 MX400 card in my 164LX:

  vga0 at pci0 dev 6 function 0: Nvidia Corporation GeForce2 MX (rev. 0xb2)

It doesn't work as a console (no video output) and the machine crashed when
I tried the 4.4.0 RC 2 X server from:

  http://www.caseydoodle.com/xc_4.4.tar.gz

However, with the same X server, X is running fine with a ATI Rage 128 GL:

  vga0 at pci0 dev 6 function 0: ATI Technologies Rage 128 GL PCI (rev. 0x00)

using the r128 driver:

  (--) R128(0): Chipset: "ATI Rage 128 GL RE (PCI)" (ChipID = 0x5245)

I see the same lack of BWX and the "bad wsmouse event" messages.  I also
noticed that there is no support for XDM-AUTHORIZATION-1 in the X server
(xdm tried to use this by default).  I compiled ogle and it plays DVD's
at a poor 9 frames/sec.  I'll see if I can find a Matrox card to try with.

Thanks for your work on this.  Is there any interest in getting the patches
into the NetBSD xsrc?
