Re: 2.6.5-rc3-ben0 freezes on old iBook



The video chip of my iBook is a mach64; below the lpsci output

0000:00:10.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage
Mobility L AGP 2x (rev 64) (prog-if 00 [VGA])

After disabling those options, my screen turns blank, but my iBook is
booting "normally"...

I noticed some differences in /var/log/messages
## 2.6.2-ben1

## 2.6.5-rc3-ben0

Thanks for helping me
