I will look over what I have done but so far.. i have unloaded the mga r128 modules and fiddled with my xserver drivers. Nothing yet. I wonder if after all this time I have been working with an unaccelerated xserver.

You built the drm-trunk modules for your 2.4.25 kernel right?
Try just using "ati" in the XF86Config-4 file for the driver. I believe
that autodetects what it needs to load and takes care of it for you.
Kernel wise, you should have the (uninorth support in the kernel config)
agpgart module loaded or compiled into the kernel. Have the r128 module
loaded. Give X another shot and let us know what happens.
Just to double check one more thing please show us your yaboot.conf
file. Some quick googling suggests video=atyfb128 as an option to try
as well.
