XFree86 with acceleration on PowerBook G4
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hello together,
currently i'm working with a non-accelerated Xserver over the aty128fb -
Frambuffer Device. This is OK, but it's too slow to watch DVDs. So i'm
trying to get it accelerated.
So, I compiled a 2.4.17-kernel with benh-patch with dri and all the
other things needed for fast graphics.
If I start my Xserver with the config below, nearly everything looks
fine, but i get an error in the Logs, which says:
Static buffer allocation failed, need at least 10xxx KB Video RAM - but
as i have only 8 MB, i just wonder how to get it to work.
After the Xserver starts, there's only a black screen with some blue and
green lines (looks different every startup) - and i can't use it.
(Switching back to the old config works just fine.)
Here's my XF86Config-4:

I don't know what is wrong and i can't find an accelerated config file
on the net - if you have one, please send it to me. Otherwise any ideas
are welcome!
Thanx,
Daniel
