Can someone with access to the Rage128 documentation
tell me how to do this from protected mode? I have the
ROM mapped so the code can get to constants stored in
the ROM. What I need is a piece of C code equal to
what the ROM initialization does minus the part about
Int10 vector setup.

 
I'm almost certain that the information you need is only
available when signing an NDA and thus could not be used
in open source drivers. Also a big problem for open source
firmware implementations such as openbios

The programmers at ATI probably have a piece of code
available to do this since ATI's Windows driver can do
it.  I've tried emailing and signing up as a developer
without response.

 
This is a pretty common experience.

Stefan.
