Is anyone running FC2 happily with AT Rage video "card"?
I've had a lot of problems with this -
everything else works fine -
after upgrading from FC1.
I've a temporary solution -
or rather two -
firstly, replacing Driver "ati" with Driver "vga" (in xorg.conf),
and secondly, reducing the default depth to 8.
I've adopted the latter,
but for some reason have lost the "viewport" facility
which is very useful with the tiny screen
on my Sony C1VFK Picturebook.
Incidentally, I found it impossible to file a bug report,
as I never received email back
when trying to register with bugzilla.
If anyone does have an ATI Rage card working OK with FC2
I would be very grateful to hear from them.
I ran into this last weekend. Only on ours we had a ATI Rage 128 Pro
and another pro with the TV tuner and both exibited the behaviour of
locking up the machine as X started with Garbage at the top 1 inch of
the screen. The only way I found to get around this was to disable the
DRI option in xorg.conf. then all worked as expected.
hope this helps someone else.
BTW. I still haven't found how to turn on the TV tuner.
