Hi Raymond,

I believe Radeon 9250 (RV280) is already supported by Ubuntu.
I also have a Radeon 9250 AGP graphics card, and it works well.
The discussion here is related to ATI Technologies Rage 128/128 Pro-based 
graphics, not the newer Radeon-based graphics.

Regards,

fpgahardwareengineer

I bought a shk 9250 r128 card because the advertisement sounded like it

Hi madbiologist,

What a miracle!
Someone let me know that device driver support is improving!
This is the first time I finally got a Linux developer to pay attention to the 
bug report I have submitted!
Nice to hear that someone out there is still working on improving hardware 
support for a 10+ year old hardware on Linux.
I still have quite a few 8 to 10+ year old hardware I picked up from e-waste 
sites at where I live.
For the most part, the 10+ year old graphics card's performance is still more 
than good enough for most non-performance critical tasks. (i.e., browsing the 
Internet on Firefox)
I own about 5 ATI Technologies Rage 128/128 PRO cards, so if anyone needs 
testing of the newer Rage 128 device driver, I can probably help out on that.
I also own many AGP 1.5V/Universal/3.3V slot mainboards from various chipset 
vendors (Intel, AMD, SiS, VIA Technologies, NVIDIA) that can be used to make 
sure that the Rage 128 device driver will work on as many platforms as possible.
Again madbiologist, thanks for letting me know about the development with 
regard to Rage 128 display device driver.

Regards,

fpgahardwareengineer

2012-10-03 Thread fpgahardwareengineer
(In reply to Bug Description)

Hi,

I need to give status update on this posting from while back.
Regarding the problems I have identified with regard to ATI Technologies Rage 
128 display device driver, the ACPI S3 State resume freeze problem with ASUS 
P4T-E was due to a buggy BIOS.
The BIOS I used when I posted the bug report was Revision 1007, which is ASUS 
P4T-E's last official release version of the BIOS.
However, it turns out if I used Revision 1008 Beta 003 or Revision 1008 Beta 
004, then the ACPI S3 State resume freeze problem will go away.
Here is ASUS P4T-E's download page.

http://support.asus.com/download.aspx?SLanguage=enp=1s=15m=P4T-E

I have a policy of not using beta version BIOS whenever possible when filing 
bug reports.
However, based on my experiments with ASUS P4T-E, the last official release 
version was buggy around ACPI so I now use the beta version BIOS (Revision 1008 
Beta 004) for this mainboard.
My view is that, beta version of BIOS (Revision 1008) was released specifically 
to deal with Revision 1007's ACPI S3 State resume bug.
I will also add that ASUS probably forgot to qualify Revision 1008 as an 
official release version.
I never tested this board with Windows 2000/XP so I don't know how it will fare 
in a Windows environment.
Note that ASUS P4T-E's ACPI S3 State resume is done through video rePOST 
(re-Power On Self Test) method, and that's the only method available for this 
mainboard.
It does not give the option of not doing video rePOST, but since Ubuntu 12.04 
works reliably now, I think I can conclude that I found a good solution to the 
bug report I submitted.
I think it is fair now to close this bug report since I found a 
solution to the problem, and for other issues I have raised in this bug report, 
I will refile them later in a different bug report with relatively low priority 
since the flashing green screen is not a fatal bug.

Regards,

fpgahardwareengineer

This might make it into the upcoming Ubuntu 12.10 Quantal Quetzal

2012-06-26 Thread Bryce Harrington
The problem is you're using the r128 driver, which is not widely used.
Really you should work with upstream on all of those issues, it's not
going to be a priority in Ubuntu.  But I'll refile your bug report and
leave it open in case someone else wants to work on it.
