I've been trying to get the above card (128Mb version) working with Mandrake 8.2. Currently, if I boot form CD1 and start the install normally, it gets to booting the kernel, then the screen goes black and the system hangs. In order to install, I have to use 'vga=normal' and everything goes fine, although the installer is in 16 colours. After install, I can boot into X as long as I use the latest nVidia drivers, but any attempt to use framebuffer console locks the machine up at boot. (interestingly, both the Caps Lock and Scroll Lock lights on the keyboard are flashing in sync) Currently I'm running 2.4.19-8mdk with nothing other than the VGA console driver compiled in (so no rivafb stuff). lspci reports a Ti 4200 (now that I've copied accross the pci.ids file from the kernel tree) but lspcidrake -v is reporting a totally unknown device (although the pci id's its listing are those for the Ti 4200 - 10de/0253/ffff/ffff is what it reports) Is there a fix to get console fb working with this card, or do I have to wait for an update to the fb stuff in the kernel ?
