No bug report on this one. Just knowing that I could specify a specific 
driver for the Xserver overcame the problem with auto-detection and the 
initial attempt crash. There will probably be other reports regarding 
the SIS video detection problem by other users who do not know of this 
option yet.
Though the system is setup, updates applied, extras packages configured, 
I might find time to pull the hard disk and swap in a blank drive in its 
place.
The system is on an Single Board Computer, NOVA which has integrated SIS 
video.

The board is the RFW type from this datasheet.
