In the slot is a standard PCI Graphic adapter (Radeon 7000). Of course the card is not low-level initialized and I can't obtain any image, neither with Kernel's frame buffer driver nor xorg's radeon driver. With vbetool is possible to enable the video BIOS of the graphic adapter. My problem is that, I can't compile vbetool on my PPC board, seems to be platform compatibility problems, also with x86emu key enabled. I think that, vbetool till now is only for x86, and AMD 64bit platforms suitable. Have somebody succeed to compile vbetools on PPC platform and when yes - how? Are there another possibilities to low-level initialize the video card, may be still in u-boot or Linux kernel? Thank you in advance! Best regards, Zhivko Yordanov
