This makes no difference.

I tried all the available modes in /etc/fb.modes (always with csync
high) and every time the display is corrupted)

If atyfb is off (not compiled) XFree86 doesn't start at all:

(==) ATI(0): Chipset:  "ati".
(**) ATI(0): Depth 16, (--) framebuffer bpp 16
(EE) ATI(0): Adapter has not been initialised.
(II) UnloadModule: "ati"
(II) UnloadModule: "atimisc"

Find them attached. Working kernel is 2.6.8, not working is 2.6.10.

The only difference I see is the hsync high set in 2.6.8, but I could
not find a way to activate it with the 2.6.10.
