Reply: (edit )I had the same problems for Trident 9400. The only solution I have found until now is using the VGA16-server (instead of the SVGA one).

Reply: (edit )I run XFree86 on my TGUI9440 VESA 2MB whitout problems in 8bpp. But 8bpp sucks, and I'm trying without success run 16bpp depth. Can anybody help me?
On M$ Windows I run 16bpp (with linear framebuffer) without help. On DOS, with the SciTech Display Doctor help I run 16bpp, too.
PS: Please send the answer to my mail. Tks!
