I had some funny behavior with this combination, including non-boot and 
console login only. Also had a strange realloccg: / filesystem full at 
one point when booting the VM off the live CD. Basically I have the pair 
working now with the VM having 896MB memory, and the video card with 
64MB. I did also notice that there were strange pauses at various times. 
I can't pin reasons down for these, and cannot reliably reproduce them. 
But eventually the combination does work.

Regards... Sean.
