Ok, I built an upstream tree with just the new atyfb in, and it breaks
on the wallstreet powerbook (LT-G) here. I'm not sure what is wrong at
this point, I'd say the clock stuff is incorrectly calculated.
On PPC, you do not have access to BIOS tables. So driver starts with
blowing up since the code for retreiving that from BIOS is unconditional
(it should be X86 only).
I disabled that, but then, the default values (which are the same as the old
driver afaik) don't seem to be enough anymore to produce a correct output.
Ben.
