Re: continuing XF402 (atimisc) problems

a few times with it (no response). No one seems to have a clue as to
the cause of the problem, which is described concisely at:

<http://lists.linuxppc.org/listarcs/linuxppc-user/200101/msg00672.html>

(more detail available if necessary)

This is on a 6500 (on-board RageII) with a RagePro PCI card. I have
tried rolling my own XF402 build, with Ani's driver updates, and get
the exact same XFree log result. I've also tried several of kfukui's
402 rpms, including use of his "old drivers," again with exactly the
same result.
Check that you have the correct fbdevhw module and that it's loaded in
your XF86Config file.

I tried adding

	Load	"fbdevhw"

in the Modules section of XF86Config-4. There appeared to be no error
from this in the XF log, but I still got the same atimisc failure
(both 2.2.18 and 2.4.1). I'm not sure how I would check if fbdevhw is
the right version. I assume it is, simply because my attempts to
build XF402 seem to behave consistently, and I doubt kfukui has
constructed his several versions of rpm incorrectly. Granted, these
may be not good reasons to trust I have the right version :-)
