 xserver fails to start on PowerPC G4 mac with ATI Rage128 PF/PRO AGP 4x TMDS 
 following update to latest Lenny
   

Add
Driver r128
to your Device section for now. The server is autoloading radeon
instead of r128, I am fixing this.

I did that. X starts now.  But it still thinks my screen is 800x600.   
The Gnome screen resolution preferences does not offer me any other  
options than 800x600, 60Hz.  The screen (A DELL 2100FP) is capable of  
1600x1200 and the video card is capable of driving it at that  
resolution if I add the following two lines to the Monitor section:


   HorizSync   31-80
   VertRefresh 56-76

Though, the gdm login screen is displayed at 1920x1200, which makes  
the pixels seem high and narrow, rather than square.  It corrects to  
1600x1200 after logging in.




Interestingly, if I do that, I get an error dialog box saying:
Nautilus can't be used now,
due to an unexpected error from Bonobo
when attempting to locate the factory.
Killing bonobo-activation-server and
restarting Nautilus may help fix the problem.

If I click OK, then Nautilus starts and everything is normal... Go  
figure!


Let me know if I can test anything for you...

Can you submit a new bug about this?  With full Xorg logs for both cases
(with HorizSync and VertRefresh lines, and without them).  Please file
it against the xserver-xorg-video-r128 package.

Thanks,
Julien
