Re: ATI MACH64 - wrong colors

2003-04-24 Thread Johan en Katrien Dewaele 
Hi Marco,

I also have a Macintosh PPC 4400 - I'm running mostly
Woody + 
some packages from testing, and sometimes Mac OS 7.5.3
on it ;-).
Kernel 2.4.18 homebrew.

I have X running 15 bpp - 640x 480 (the Apple-screen I
got only gets
to this resolution)
But I do remember that I also had trouble getting the
screen right, I
had to fiddle around abit, yeah, a long while back...

Eventually I got it as in this screenshot :
http://home.tiscali.be/jenkdewaele2/screen2.jpg

I boot wih BootX, option novideo.

Please find my XF86Config-4 for version 4.1.0-16
downunder.

If any more questions, ask.

HTH

Johan

Subject:   ATI MACH64 - wrong colors
From:  Marco Wilka [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi,

I am using Debian unstable on a PowerMac 4400 with an ATI MACH64 VT
graphics adapter and have the following problem when
using XFree86:

 - the colors are only correct when in 8-Bit-Mode
 - 16 bit depth/16 bit fbbpp yields in psychedelic color shifts
 - when using 24 bit depth, red shows up as blue, and everything
   that is meant to be blue appears as brown
 - (15 bpp doesn't work at all)

This problem occurs with kernel image 2.2.20 and 2.4.18 as well as
with xserver version 4.1 and 4.2. Kernel command line arguments
don't seem to affect my xserver's behaviour in any way. If I start
with BootX instead of quik and use the No video driver option,
the screen output is rendered unreadable.

Was anyone successful to get the xserver working in more than
8 bit on a stock 4400? Anything I could find on the web on that
topic didn't lead to anything so far, so any help would be
appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Marco

Hi Marco,

The Starmax 3000 series is basically the same as the 4400 and also has the same 
problem (my 3000 
also only gives anything reasonable at 8 bit colour). Nobody seems to have a 
solution to this yet.

Nick.
