[Linux-fbdev-users] Multihead Framebuffer wierdness...

[David R. <da...@ma...>]

Hi folks,

I have an Apple Powermac 9500 running Yellowdoglinux 2.1 with a 2.4 
kernel. I have managed to get my Voodoo 2/3000 and and ATI Mach64 
card to work together in X Windows, however I can not get them past 8 
bit. I am using XFree86 4.10 with modes from fbset -x in the 
XF86Config-4.

The Voodoo card is /dev/fb0 and the ati is fb1. I have 
video=tdfx:noaccel,atyfb:noaccel in my kernel args on bootup, as 
acceleration is not supported...

I have been unable to use "map:01" to have consoles on each screen. 
Also, when I boot with the ATY as console and with noaccel it is 
unusable... jumping screen makes it unreadable.

When I use fbset at console I can set the voodoo up to 32 bit, and if 
I boot with the ati as console I can set it up to 24 bit.

If you need more details please ask!

TIA,

dAVE
