I've been trying to make mine work. Figuring that there's no way in hell
somebody's written a server for it yet, I defaulted to XF86_SVGA (on
NetBSD/i386 1.3). Using chipset "generic" I can get 320*200. Using
"ativga" I get:

Using pcvt driver (version 3.32)
XF86Config: /etc/XF86Config
(**) stands for supplied, (--) stands for probed/default values
(**) XKB: keymap: "xfree86(us)" (overrides other XKB settings)
(**) Mouse: type: Busmouse, device: /dev/pms0, buttons: 3
(**) SVGA: Graphics device ID: "ATI Rage Fury 32MB"
(**) SVGA: Monitor ID: "Sony CPD-200SX"
(--) SVGA: Mode "640x480" needs vert refresh rate of 100.02 Hz. Deleted.

<many more of these right up through...>

(--) SVGA: Mode "1800X1440" needs hsync freq of 104.52 kHz. Deleted.
(**) FontPath set to "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/local/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/:unscaled,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/:unscaled,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/"
(--) SVGA: PCI: ATI Unknown chipset (0x5246) rev 0, Memory @ 0xf0000000, MMIO @ 0xff9fc000, I/O @ 0xd800
Using XFree86 ATI driver version 4.4.
Unknown graphics controller detected.
Unknown chip descriptor in BIOS: 0x3F3F0000.
Unknown video adapter detected.
Brooktree 476 or similar RAMDAC detected.
Support for this video adapter is highly experimental!
X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown).


Which is why I came to this newsgroup :)

Surely somebody out there has written a driver for the Rage 128 and XF86_SVGA?
I'd like any info people could provide. (Please email to al...@mit.edu, as I
don't regularly read this newsgroup. Thanks.
