Well, changing the probe list will make devices invisible to OF and
therefore NetBSD. If that's what you want there's nothing wrong with it
but NetBSD is pretty much able to figure out which display device is the
console so there's no reason to hide the others.

Hrm, that's odd and shouldn't happen. Probably a bug in machfb :/
Please send me your dmesg output to verify.

that's the onboard ATI, while the one above lists the card.=20

No, that shouldn't be necessary.
Just a couple questions:
- does the console appear on the onboard ATI and does it work properly?
- does XFree detect both chips? It looks like it's trying to use the
card which will fail when the console is on the onboard ATI.

Solaris doesn't change video timings when starting X, but XFree does.

have fun
