Title:
  MACH64 video driver crashes with Mach 3D Rage Pro

Status in “xserver-xorg-video-mach64” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  It seems that xserver-xorg-video-mach64 is broken in Lubuntu 12.10.
  After the upgrade from 12.04 to 12.10 MACH64 video driver crashes, causing 
infinite loop at boot:
  starting desktop manager, X server crash, restarting desktop manager, X 
server crash, restarting desktop manager, X server crash, etc.
  It is impossible even to switch to text console.
  I found a workaround - booting in rescue mode, mounting filesystem read-write 
and creating the file containing lines
  ------------------------------
  Section "Device"
        Identifier      "Default device"
        Option          "NoAccel"
  EndSection
  ------------------------------
  in  /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d  stops the crashes of X server and allows to 
boot desktop environment. But doing without video acceleration on a slow 
machine is not a good thing.
  I hope it will be possible to find the bug (in 12.04 this video driver worked 
OK).

  Some details which may be useful:
  System:
  CPU Pentium III 500MHz, RAM 512 MB
  Video card:
  01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI 3D 
Rage Pro AGP 1X/2X (rev 5c)
  OS:
  Lubuntu 12.10 (upgraded from 12.04)
  Package:
  xserver-xorg-video-mach64  6.9.3-0ubuntu1
