As far as I know VIA has not released any X drivers for the
non-unichrome based cards (IGP or discrete).  I don't know how similar
the deltachrome IGP and discrete cards are.  If the chrome IGP cards
are based on the unichrome design, they may be supported/supportable
in the via/unichrome driver.  If they are more like the discrete
deltachrome chips, VIA has not released an X driver for them yet, so
you are probably out of luck.
