ati driver & xfree86
Hi,
I saw recently on this list that it was possible to get hardware acceleration
by using the 'ati' driver, but unfortunatly I can't get it right ...
When I start X, my screen gets black as if it was sleeping after a few seconds ;
switching to the console and 'ps'ing shows that the server is running, and WMaker also :
eqdar 470 0.0 0.9 2856 1284 tty3 S 19:44 0:00 /bin/sh /usr/bin/X11/startx
eqdar 479 0.0 0.6 2760 840 tty3 S 19:44 0:00 xinit /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc -- /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xserverrc
root 480 5.1 11.2 25460 15260 ? S< 19:44 0:05 /usr/bin/X11/X -dpi 100 -nolisten tcp

eqdar 511 0.4 2.1 6968 2924 tty3 S 19:44 0:00 xterm -class UXTerm -title uxterm -u8
My config seemed to work fine with the 'fbdev' driver,
are there any specific options that need to be set when using 'ati' ?
Here is my config and the logfile ... I'm booting with the following
argument 'video=atyfb:1024x768-8@70'
