AFAICS, ide is specific to powerpc because of a number of powerpc-only
low-level drivers that insist on being built into the kernel, while
fbdevs ar

Oh, yes, I remember, Apple's M1 has a weird clock setting. Still, you
should post that to the linux-fb
I solved the problem by myself :-)
In drivers/video/aty/atyfb_base.c I've replaced the MCLCK and the XCLCK

Hi,
I've successfully compiled the 2.6.5-rc3-ben0 kernel on my iBook SE (the
shell), but when booting it freezes after writing
openpic : exit
I've made some tests, and it seems to come from a graphical problem.
Here are some pieces of my .config
CONFIG_FB_ATY=y
CONFIG_FB_ATY_CT=y
CONFIG_FB_ATY_G
