Tinyx does not use a configuration file at all. Options can be passed to 
the server on the command line. If you create a link from 
/usr/X11R6/bin/X to the server you want to start, options can also be set 
in the /usr/X11R6/bin/startx script as "server options"

You should have access to the man page for tinyx. "man Xkdrive" should 
provide some info and pointers to other man pages.

I've had success with the Xfbdev, Xchips, and Xvesa drivers. For Xchips 
and Xvesa, I've used the options "-screen 1024x768x24 -2button" for a 
1024x768 display. 2button causes a 2 button mouse to emulate a 3 button 
mouse.

I've no experience with this chip, however it should work with the Xvesa 
driver. I've found that I have to use the -screen...." options, or the 
display is nearly unusable. man Xvesa should give some detail as well.

Hope that helps,
