I don't know which ATI Rage card you have exactly, but there is a patch 
for the RageXL (tested on a MIPS board) on 
ftp.linux-mips.org:/pub/linux/mips/people/ppopov/2.4/aty_nobiosinit.patch.

The problem is that at kernel version 2.4.24 or .25, don't remember 
which one, the aty code was restructured and the patch does not apply 
anymore.
