ALPHA 1000 4/200
DU 4.0D
Problem: Only showing 16 colors, and 640 x 480. Card does not seem to be
recognized as 32/64 bit card. System only shows VGA support.

Have a 9FX Vision 330 (PCI) Graphics Card (PB2GA-JA) installed.

On boot-up it ID's as a generic VGA, sizer -gt confirms VGA.
I boot-up 'genvmunix' rebuild the Kernel, and reboot. It still ID's as a
generic VGA Card.

I installed via setld -l OSFSERPC425 as shown below:
"OSFSERPC425 installed X Servers for PCbus(Windowing Environment)

Manual says to install OSFSERPCI360 subset, but was also written for 3.2d,
thus no subset such as this on the 4.0D disk.

Any thoughts?
