I've also tried to use "video=ati128fb,crt:1,lcd:0" in the kernel
command line, but this doesn't change anything.

BTW, should I set ati128fb or aty128fb? There doesn't seem to be any
difference in the logs.

The resolution is normally 1152x768 and /var/log/messages says in
particular:

ay kernel: aty128fb: Rage Mobility M3 (AGP) [chip rev 0x0] 8M 128-bit SDR SGRAM (1:1)
ay kernel: Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 144x48
ay kernel: fb0: ATY Rage128 frame buffer device on PCI

But when I try to force the resolution to 1024x768 with

  video=aty128fb:1024x768@60,crt:1,lcd:0

the "Console:" line is now:

ay kernel: Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 80x30

and the LCD doesn't support that (I had to switch off). Is it normal?
Why don't I get 128x48 instead? Are my problems with m3mirror are
related to this?
