Normal, your aty rage128 is not a radeon, and is thus using whatever driver is
using the aty rage128, and thus the white-on-white problem is not gone for
you.

Can you check which graphic driver you are using, and submit a modification of
attilio's patch so you also disable the aty-rage128 driver ?
