that viper 330 video revisited

Greetings;

When I made the remark about a rage128 with only 4 megs boggling the 
mind, in /var/log/dmesg it doesn't show up, but on screen there is an 
oops and a traceback while kregister? or some similar name is trying 
to register in the radeon framebuffer to go with it.

I'm gonna assume it never saw a rage128 with only 4 megs is the cause.  
However, when running X, there are times when I have to force a 
screen refresh by expanding a terminal screen and then resizing it 
back to its normal size because the screen has become contaminated 
with horizontal grey bars.

Cheers, Gene
