that is a very common problem with card

Try adding these lines to your /etc/X11/XF86Config file
Section "Device"
    Identifier  "SiS 6326"
    VideoRam "what ever your card has"
        Option "fast_vram"
        Option "pci_burst_on"
        Option "ext_eng_queue"
        Option "no_bitblt"
        Option "no_imageblt"
        Option "sw_cursor"
    #Insert yout clock settings here
EndSection

I think it should work perfectly after that.
I tried a lot of cards and I have got the perfoemance with SiS6326 card.
