I have successfully installed Caldera EDesktop 2.4 on a 600X. Basically 
ignore the auto-detection during setup. Once Setup is complete and you do 
the first reboot, login to the console, run XF86Setup and make sure you 
select the NM2200 Chipset. Then you'll be able to run at 1024x768, 16bpp 
without any problems. With Redhat, I had to do a text-based install, and 
then do the same on the first reboot.
