This machine, altough obsolete, is still quite common The snapshot you posted doesn't have much information... there's no obvious error for example in there... What video driver are you trying to use ? Have you tried plain offb ? (disabling whatever is the native driver for your video card, ie, radeonfb or aty128fb or even atyfb, dunno what you have in there). You can also try something like "udbg-immortal" on the kernel command line see if that brings you more debug output. Cheers, Ben.
