I am able to use it, but it is not as stable as Here it doesn't work at all : The screen is divided in 4 quarters, both higher quarters contains a small fvwm screen (each), both lower are black, the mouse is frozen and it dies quickly. This is with a bad kernel argument :video=atyfb:vmode:14,cmode:16 (I say bad because atyfb doesn't pop up in the boot sequence, and XF68_FBDev doesn't sense the aty either) The screen is white, with somme console text in transparency, the mouse is working a few seconds, you can activate a pop-up menu (which you can hardly decipher) and the whole machine is frozen. This is with video=atyfb,vmode:14,cmode:16 in BootX, which is as (if not more) bad than the first. (I say bad because it's not the good syntax for video= with much args, but at least "atyfb : ATY RAGE LT PRO" etc appears in the boot sequence, and XF68_FBDev seems to make some use of it) And stranger even : when atyfb is recognized by the kernel, randomly the console font changes to a rather gothic one, frezzing all quickly ???!!?? This is all with kernel 2.2.0/2.2.1 from ftp.fr.kernel.org, and now with a 2.2.2 from samba cvs (a little patched to include volume buttons functions). I included only both atyfb options in the kernel (plus OFfb of course). > Xpmac, and I can't get acceleration to work. Xpmac is accelerated (and that > makes quite a difference, so I use it mostly. I'll try again this one. I'm quite disappointed since I have the same setup on a 8600, which works well with XF68_FBDev, in 16bpp. > >> > >> Have you been able to get accelerated XFBdev working on yours? > > no, I'm searching through all archives up to 12/98 to see if I find a > > solution, so far I got nothing. > > > > -- > > GoM > > ---------------------------------- > E-Mail: Batmensch > Date: 07-Mar-99 > Time: 02:31:13 > > This message was sent by XFMail > ---------------------------------- -- GoM [[ This message was sent via the linuxppc-dev mailing list.
