Hi,

If you are interested, followiong are some test results I carried out while trying to bring up an ATI 3D Rage II+ video card on my B2000 which runs on Linux kernel 2.6.12-rc6-pa1.

The video card outputs from 'lspci -v' are:

0000:01:01.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc 3D Rage II+ 215GTB [Mach64 GTB] (rev 9a) (prog-if 00 [VGA])
    Flags: bus master, stepping, medium devsel, latency 255
    Memory at fa000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M]
    I/O ports at 12000 [size=256]
    Memory at f4800000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
    Expansion ROM at f4820000 [disabled] [size=128K]

Iirc for such ATI 3D Rage on a non-i386 platform you would have to select:

 CONFIG_FB_ATY_XL_INIT: (sic "to support booting a Rage XL without BIOS 
support.")

i.e. something like in your make menuconfig:

<M>   ATI Mach64 display support
[*]     Mach64 CT/VT/GT/LT (incl. 3D RAGE) support
[ ]       Mach64 generic LCD support (EXPERIMENTAL) (NEW)
[*]       Rage XL No-BIOS Init support

Hth,
        Joel
