Huh. This is very nearly the same problem I have with 4.1 on a StarMax PPC, using a reflashed PC MilleniumII instead of the built-in ATI. Disabling acceleration allows the system to run; leaving it enabled makes the system hang *real* fast. In addition to this, the displayed image is offset downward about 16 scan lines, though the hardward cursor is positioned correctly. Is it possible there is bad interaction between the two cards? (Even though one is not being used....) Wait, no. MacOS 9.x uses the MMII card just fine. This leads me to believe there *is* a bug in the MGA code. Or was, from 4.1.x at least to 4.2.1....
