  My video card uses the S3 ViRGE/DX chipset. The hardware
  requirements for Plan9 says it supports ViRGE/GX, GX2, VX, and MX.
  I wonder if DX is compatible enough to work.

  Also, Plan9 video chipset support is quite scarce right now.....
  Is anyone writing other drivers?

virge/gx & virge/dx has the same chipset
gx has sgram
dx has sdram

virge/dx is a good choice
