the next release of xfree (already in Sid) will have support for the VIA 
EPIA onboard graphics. It works well on my Sid install, so i'd like to 
give you the PCI numbers for the _next_ xfree version, it's not yet 
included in Knoppix 2004-05-17, but in case you update it for a new 
Knoppix release.

0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8623 
[Apollo CLE266] integrated CastleRock graphics (rev 03)

0000:01:00.0 Class 0300: 1106:3122 (rev 03)

the driver name in XF86Config-4 is "via" (instead of the "vesa" driver 
previsouly used)

if you want to ensure that the driver for xfree is present, check for:
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/via_drv.o

thanks in advance
