|  Got finally an ATI r128 pro pci card for my g3 tower...

|  Now when starting xfree it dies with:

|      Fatal server error:
|      xf86ReadBIOS: open /dev/mem


  I guess that's what the UseBIOS option is doing in my config :-)

Still the same...


Tried to switch to pci graphic card for OF prompt and it
defaults to 640X480 mode...but trying to boot the kernel
results in a "CLAIM" error...


Someone can actually boot with an ATI pci card on G3 tower?
