I run a Video7 VRAM with a Nanao 9070S (1024x768 noninterlaced) 

ODT will only go up to 800x600 with the VRAM however - and it only uses
about 80-85% of the screen. - not good

There is a 1024x768 ODT set-up for the Video 7  1024i  board  - I haven't
seen it run though.  The 1024i board costs less than the VRAM also.

I seem to remember someone at SCO telling me that the VRAM board had
several non-standard (extended?) registers that were causing problems
with the VRAM 1024x768 setup.  

good luck
