Hi,

I think it worked on mine (although I added/used an external PGX64 to
get a bigger resolution :) According the XF86 logfile I kept when trying
things, the internal ATI was (automatically) set as :

(--) ATI(0): Virtual size is 1024x768 (pitch 1024)
(**) ATI(0): *Default mode "1024x768": 65.0 MHz, 48.4 kHz, 60.0 Hz
(II) ATI(0): Modeline "1024x768"   65.00  1024 1048 1184 1344  768 771 777 806 -hsync -vsync

Maybe you can try forcing the "Mode" in your XF86Config file.
I don't think I forced it in PROM. As far as I can recall, to use the
internal card, I just left PROM as default and let XFree86 find the
graphic mode.
