Hey,
After seeing many many posts and no solutions anywhere regarding having a
full screen console on a Sony Vaio Picturebook with an ATI Rage Mobility
video chip on a kernel anywhere near the current version....~inhale~....I
finally made an attempt with a kernel-2.4.17 diff patch to manually change
the nessecery source code in order to make 1024x480 supported. If there is
any info that you might need I might be able to get it for you but my
experience is limited unfortunately. My attempt to fix this manually was a
failure. I managed to find all the code and made all of the proper
adjustments, but when I made the adjustments to
../drivers/video/aty/mach64_ct.c there were problems with pll and mpostdiv
being undefined. I attempted anxiouslly to work around this by leaving the
code as it was originally or even replacing the nessecery code to make it
similar (by theory), but there was no success. It did compile, however after
booting into the kernel with vga=0x301 the screen was terribly unreadable,
missized (large), and flashing. I wish I could manage this on my own, but
I'm not capable and have made no progress. I'm surprised that no one has
taken the older patch and implemented it into the kernel so this would not
have been an issue except in 2.4.17 and earlier. I do know that if I use
Windows XP ont his machine, in order to get fullscreen usage I needed to use
NeoMagic drivers (if you need these, contact me for the exact drivers that
made mine work) when my video card is in fact an ATI Rage Mobility chip.
Please, even if you can't help with this, give me some information that may
lead to a positive outcome for any/all picturebook users. Thank you in
advance!
Note: I attempted this fix on linux-2.4.28-r9 kernel.
If you would like to see my attempted patch I will show you that as well, it
works fantastic on terms of patching but the code however does not work.
Here is the patch for the 2.4.17 kernel:
