This modular X stuff is really fantastic. It took me only about 5
minutes from getting your email to running the
785a59ead0e8d1d681b2cb6827ee58ad2c51f8c6 checkin.

And the good news is that it comes up.
At first it came up with a screwed up image that made me think of a
texturing problem (running the compix "desktop effects" stuff)... so I
uncommented the videoram line and it came up.

However, image is still color deprived (still seeing banding
indicative of 16bit mode).

For your reference, here is the output (in the working config):
