Hi, I've trouble in making aty128fb work on a G4, I have a kernel compiled with make-kpkg from the last kernel-source-2.4.20 and kernel-patch-benh.
OFfb works fine but I can find how to run XFree with it, so I compiled aty128fb in the kernel instead but the screen is automatically turned off. Keyboard is ok as I can log in and reboot, and I can also log in via ssh with no trouble so it's running but I have no display. I also tried to compile OFfb in the kernel and aty128fb as module and load it afterwards but I have an unresolved symbols error. Kernel config and message log (parts) follow. Thanks for any help Nicolas B.
