You should find out what kind of chipset your SVGA uses.
*Then* you can search for a driver written for that chipset.

As a last resort, you can *make* it VESA-compatible by using
the UNIVBE TSR (found on SimTel mirrors in the msdos/graphics
directory).  Your vendor probably put some VESA TSR on the
diskettes which you got with your machine, so you can try that,
too; but UNIVBE is usually better than those OEM-supplied TSRs.
