Bug#459229: xserver-xorg-video-ati: Does not work on iBookG4



Brice Goglin ha scritto:

All these tries was made using this version

ii xserver-xorg-video-ati 1:6.7.197-1 X.Org X server -- ATI display driver

Do you think I would repeat all with driver from exeprimental?

You were right: nothing changed with these changes.

Nothing changed!

Without the xorg.conf  file the server does not  start with this message
on the console:

=====================================================================
(EE) Unable to locate/open config file
New driver is "ati"
(==) Using default built-in configuration (54 lines)
(EE) Failed to load module "vesa" (module does not exist, 0)

Fatal server error:

      after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining.

I tried to add these lines

	Modeline "1024x768_60.00"  64.11  1024 1080 1184 1344  768 769 772 795  -HSync +Vsync

nothing changes for the screen (but  my keyboard goes crazy with no more
alt key :-( )
