Hello,

That's good to know - did you get any weird blitter errors, like things
not drawn at the right places, garbled text or so on the Rage II?

Please prod it a bit more under XFree if you have the time, and please
send me the dmesg output and XFree86.0.log - others definitely have odd
problems with the Rage II, if it works fine for you I'd like to see if
it's a different hardware revision or something like that.

Should Just Work(tm) now, also with acceleration. I also added support
for virtual consoles which needs some more testing ;)

> Also: I got a U1e with 501-4127 Creator Series 1 (FFB) last weekend

Same as above, just make sure you have the latest source.=20
To define an ffb in XF86Config all you need is this:
Section "Device"
	Identifier "Creator"
	Driver "sunffb"
	BusID "SBUS:fd0"
Endsection

... and refer to it in the Screen section as
Device "Creator"

XFree apparently thinks 'SBus' is synonymous to 'use /dev/fb*', that's
why the ffbs and afbs are defined as SBus devices even though they're
not.

have fun
Michael
