Do either of these options help?
Option "ConnectorTable" "100,2,1,2,96,1,0,1"
Option "ConnectorTable" "100,2,2,2,96,1,0,1"

They don't make any difference, same effects as before  - greenish shades, vertical blue 
line.  Switching to the text console works (as I can type "reboot", so the kb 
input goes the right way), but the display just flickers shortly, and then the shade/line 
does appear there, too.

I also tried some other options (like 'Option "BusType" "PCI"' and 
'DefaultDepth 8'), but they also don't make any difference - same effects, again.

Do you have a VGA monitor by any chance you could test with?

Alex, this was apparently the right hint!  Here are my observations:

Plugging *only* the vga monitor in, and disconnecting the ADC one, the Mac 
refuses to boot.  It switches on, and after ~5 seconds (system test?) it 
automatically powers off (sounds like a Notebook's card?).  The only chance to 
boot is plugging in both monitors.  I first booted into OS X, and had both 
monitors synchronised.

I then booted into Linux, and now X comes up with the radeon driver, showing 
the X screen on the VGA monitor, and the well-known green shades on the ADC 
one.  This behaviour is independent of any 'ConnectorTable' option; there is no 
difference between starting without, and with any of your two settings above.

An other observation: The VGA monitor has a smaller resolution (old Belinea 
1024x768), but X apparently used the size of the Formac attached to the ADC 
(1280x1024).

... and now I also tested all those "MacModel" options, always rebooting 
between two tests:
- ibook and powerbook-* produce no output/shades on the ADC connected tft;
- imac-g5-isight seems to be out-of-sync for the tft;
- mini-* and emac *do* actually produce a display on the tft, but smaller than 
the actual size (1152x864 instead of 1280x1024), with the right border being 
black, and a stripe from the top copied to the bottom.  Same happens with emac, 
but clipped to an even smaller size.

A log from the mini test is attached.

Is that helpful in any way?

Thanks, Albrecht.
