Overall, an excellent patch. I don't have words to express how much better the
video is :-)
The Xpmac.special and/or the aty128fb.c patch seem to have some console
weirdness. It seems to clobber the saved text when you switch from X back to the
console (I assume it's a weirdness w/ the vram...but that's a total guess :) )
I just noticed that it happens if you type a few characters in the console, and
then hit the delete key.
Also, it takes an awfuly long time to switch b/w X and the console (although
I assume that has to do w/ the different vmodes..)
Hoping perfection will come soon
