XFree86: Versions since 3.3.3
Once you disable this option in the BIOS, the "glowing white screen" effect is gone. Then it takes some playing with options like "cyber_shadow" to get the display working. See the XFree86 Release Notes for Trident chipsets at /usr/doc/packages/xf86/README.trident for further info. Additionally, you must not use vesafb together with the X server it seems.
Update (8/5/99):
Obviously this phenomenom is also dependent on the BIOS-version of the
Computer. Upgrading the System BIOS to the latest revision has solved
the problem in one reported case (thanks to Martin Kolde for reporting
this). The Option "cyber_shadow" has not been used in this case.
