Subject: [2.6.10-bk6] oops in load of atyfb
After some hours of trying to get video to the atyfb instead of vga16, I
got this. The video= boot option didn't seem to work, loading the module
caused an oops.
Something borked, out of time to fight with it.

Have you accidentally enabled CONFIG_FB_ATY_XL_INIT? If you did, recompile
with this option off.

That doesn't appear to be the case, but I will attach the config file in
case I did something else ill-advised. I'm having no luck getting FC[123]
to use non-generic framebuffers with 2.6, either on the test machine for
which this build was done, or on my laptop, which would be a world more
fun to use at the hardware 1400x1050 instead of 1024x768.
Hope this will suggest something to you. I add lspci, unfortunately
drag-n-droped, if you can't read it I'll mail an attachment from the
actual machine.

Thanks much for your interest in this! The machine is an old Dell
P-II/350, 160MB ram, running RH7.3 upgraded as 2.5 developed and I had to
fix stuff. Other than the video issue it's been rock solid and in
regular use since 2.5.47 or so.

This time the config really is attached...
