Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-r128
Ubuntu 9.04PPC "out-of-the-box" fresh install on an iMac DV 400MHz (G3, slot-loader): As the default installation results in 8bit only display (256 colours, PseudoColor mode), I have tried to force the usage of the r128 driver using a minimal xorg.conf (see attachments). This fails, as the r128 driver fails to detect the card (see attached Xorg.0.log). I could not see any difference between including the "disable 'dri'" statement and leaving it out - in the log, it looks like this statement is actually ignored/overridden by the X server. If I run strace against "startx" (strace -fo xserver.trace startx), I can see that the driver accesses the AGP bus and both PCI busses (see also attached output of "lspci -vvnn"). Under 8.04, the same driver works fine on the same hardware.
