Up to now I don't select "Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers". I think this driver _is_ experimental. For example scrolling in the console is much slower compared with the offb driver and what is really annoying is that I can't use atyfb on my PowerBook G3 (Wallstreet) if I boot it with Open Firmware.
