Freeze at boot with a Radeon 7000 PCI

["Sido" <sido@castalie.org>]

Title: Message

Hi,

 

I recently got a Radeon 7000 (PCI -- mac edition). But when I tried to boot with it the display just freezes,

giving me either a frozen "Mac" bootup screen, or a xmon report, depending on the kernel.

 

I tried different combinations of kernel / BootX options, with the following results :

- 2.4.23-pre5-ben0, with default config, and 'video=radeonfb' freezes in xmon:

Linked at: 0xc0000000

frame buffer at: 0x8c008000

klimit: 0xc031b000

MSR: 0x00000072

HID0: 0x0210c0ac

ICTC: 0x00000000

 

pmac_init(): exit

id mach(): done

MMU: enter

MMU: hw init

hash: enter

hash: findpiece

hash: patch

hash: done

MMU: mapin

MMU: mapin_random

MMU: setio

MMU: exit

xmon uses screen and keyboard

setup_arch: enter

setup_arch: bootmem

arch: exit

 

and just hangs there...

It doesn't boot with "no video driver" or "force video settings"

 

- I tried different other kernels (2.4.21-ben0, standard 2.4.18), but I now realize that FB_RADEON wasn't set

in these...

 

- The only kernel that boots is the standard 'linux.bin' image from the Woody CD, which is a 2.2.20 kernel

 

Does the xmon output above give any hints on what is happening ?

 

Any hint is appreciated,

Simon
