I am sorry to ask a question that must have been answered
in the billions of messages talking from XFree 4, but is it
possible to run it actually with the r128 driver ?

Yes.

On my BW G3, when I launch X I get hundred of lines like
:
(W) r128: resolution deleted (XXX x XXX)
(E) r128: no available mode found
No screen found

You either haven't specified valid modes for your monitor or the correct
horizontal and vertical frequency ranges.

I am running on anthony's aty128fb.

Do you use Option "UseFBDev" ?

When I use offb, it goes a step further and crashes with a segmentation
fault.

I wouldn't expect that to work anyway...

What is wrong with it? What are the necessary patches for
XF4 to work on PPC?

None except the cache flush patch by Kostas Gewrgiou and Kevin Hendricks.
