This is a known bug. The video address is slightly different in 800x600
than in 640x480 and this somehow casues the grf_iv device to fail the match
phase.

This should go away when I finish making "real" video drivers for the quadras.
Progress is a little slow right now since I'm working on my master's thesis
but I've made some very promising inroads on Quadra hardware.

Another reason for delay is that Scott seems to be hinting at the fact
that the whole nature of our graphics/console driver model is going to
change. I'd like to wait and see what is going to happen before making
more kernel code.

The MADHATTER patch will fix this problem if I recall. You'll need to
compile your own kernel but since you have a card you might be able to
do better.

You might be better off using the video card for now. If I remember right the
SLOTMAN kernels will work with your machine and card.
