Here: TP 765L, Trident TGUI 9660 (Cyber9385), 2 MB RAM, works with XFree86 
3.3.6, 4.0.3 and 4.1.0. Just ask for a XF86Config-4 for your TP.

XFree86 4.2.0 added Xv support for TGUI chips to the Trident driver so video 
overlay (AKA 2d acceleration or video acceleration) should work. Has anyone 
tried this?
