They don't have to be on the list (my monitor isn't, for example) - just
enter the values it requires (from your userdoc) and all is fine.  In the
case of the video card, go to the heart and pick the chipset.

For example, at work I have some Phoenix/Trident/bastardised/OEM card - of
course, nothing/nobody knows what it is ... but on the card is a nice big
IC with the logo "S3" on the side.  A bit more prodding and we
discovered that it's an S3 Trio 64V+ card with 2Mb VRAM - voila, I
configured it is that, and away it went ... working fine ever since.

Well that's a start...
