i hear the Linux Driver Project has had lots of companies ask for
assistance in writing drivers for their hardware…

see:
http://www.itpro.co.uk/606360/free-linux-driver-development

whether or not SiS Corporations is involved i do not know…
but you can search their site
http://www.sis.com/function/search.php?keyword=linux&imageField.x=0&imageField.y=0
and see what they have, or not…

if you have some SiS hardware without a good linux driver you could
(should) write them a NICE letter and ask them to consider seeing
assistance from the Linux Driver Project…

and, i believe if enough folks with SiS products ask, nicely…they
will get it done, eventually…

additionally, if a million folks write and tell them nicely that they
decided to NOT buy SiS device model number [whatever] BECAUSE there
was no Linux driver…then, it will get done a LOT sooner…

Have a lot of fun…

Certainly, I am sure they will appreciate any feedback you send them.
