Problems with Lombard graphics card.



Hi,

 

I’m having trouble with getting X running correctly on a number of powerbooks.

 

They are all G3 lombards with  ATI 3D Rage LT Pro’s with 8Mb of VideoRAM.

 

I have messed around with xorg.conf for a while and have got to the stage where X will start and evilwm will load but there appears to be some distortion and the framebuffer dosnt seem to clear between restarts of X.

 

I’ve pasted the xorg.conf file below incase anyone can see something blatantly wrong:

 

      1 Section "Module"

      2     Load        "dbe"   # Double buffer extension

      3

      4     SubSection  "extmod"
