VGA-out not working any longer on old TiBook 400



Hello!

I've a bunch of questions about the m3mirror/vga-out and XFree with the
current ppc-kernel on an old TiBook 400:

Since a kernel update from 2.4.19 to 2.4.20 and now to 2.4.23 I cannot
use the VGA output any longer, I can switch it on/off (using m3mirror),
but the signal produces a funny colorfull but almost random pixelized
CRT  image, the LCD image is uneffected and OK. I also updated the XFree
(current Debian/unstable) and in addition noted DRI is broken now:-(
All I want is mirroring again for presentations...!

Any ideas?

My system is a Debian/testing,unstable:

Linux charon 2.4.23-pre5-ben0 #1 SMP Sat Oct 18 23:30:04 CEST 2003 ppc
GNU/Linux

I'm a little wondering why r128 is "unused" - X is running fine in
framebuffer mode, except DRI is off:

r128                  110592   0 (unused)
drmlib                 50404   0 [r128]
agpgart                18864   1
