Pat,

There is currently work in progress regarding AGP. This work can be followed on the https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev mailing list. There is also a https://ozlabs.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc64-dev list for those 64-bit minded people :-)

Personally I have a Dual G5 (version 2.2) and have X running. I will send my XFConfig86-4 as soon as I reboot back into debian.

From MacOSX my graphics card information is

ATY,RV350:

  Type: display
  Bus:  AGP
  Slot: SLOT-1
  VRAM (Total): 64 MB
  Vendor:       ATI (0x1002)
  Device ID:    0x4150
  Revision ID:  0x0000
  ROM Revision: 113-A13601-126


Paddy.

This will probably not be particularly helpful, but my G5 does not
run with fbdev (as far as I can tell anyway). However, I do have a
different card

Section "Device"
        Identifier      "GeForce FX5200"
        Driver          "nv"
        BusID           "PCI:240:16:0"
EndSection

So, maybe I'm not getting the video mode correct, or something.  Does
anyone have an XF86Config for an Apple Cinema Display 20, preferably
for an ATI Radeon video card, which I could look at?  Even one for an
NVidia card with a Cinema Display 20 would be helpful to look at, and
make sure I'm doing this right.

Thanks,

Pat
