Video RAM detection for X
I am having trouble getting my PowerMac 6360 to run X on
Woody with anything greater than 8 bit color depth. This
was fine when I was setting up the system, but now it is
limiting. I am using an 800x600 display. I have the Mac
side of the machine displaying 16 bit color at 800x600, so
I know it works on the hardware.
When I look through the X log, it doesn't look like the
correct amount of video RAM is being detected. The machine
has 1 MB of video RAM. I tried setting VideoRam to 1024 in
the Display section of my XF86Config-4 file, but that
doesn't seem to have any effect. Here's the line that makes
me question the video RAM situation:
(II) FBDev(0): Hardware: valkyrie (vidmem: 468k)
Any ideas?
