There are four XP chips listed:

    { BLADEXP,          PCI_CHIP_9910,  RES_SHARED_VGA },
    { CYBERBLADEXPAI1,  PCI_CHIP_8820,  RES_SHARED_VGA },
    { CYBERBLADEXP4,    PCI_CHIP_2100,  RES_SHARED_VGA },
    { XP5,              PCI_CHIP_2200,  RES_SHARED_VGA },

I tried the BLADEXP, but I got no output on the screen. The log is
