Geert et al,
The problem is not as simple. The G3 laptops have a different kind of
video chip then other ATI based machines. On my laptop the chip is
/pci/ATY,264LT-G and even though I use fb0: (after adding my chip_id to
the atyfb.c) I still don't get any acceleration with X. Now if memory
serves me right the card was an ATI Rage with 2D and 3D acceleration.
I'm using XF86_FBDEV_pm2_4 with no luck as well.
I'll be happy to give anyone an account on the laptop for some hacking.
Jambi.
