Hi, Just wanted to share my positive experience with Hui Yu's patches.

I just bought a Sony VAIO FRV-25 (w/o the modem problem) running Gentoo, here's
an lspci after Hui's patches:

00:00.0 Host bridge: ATI Technologies Inc: Unknown device cbb2 (rev 02)
00:01.0 PCI bridge: ATI Technologies Inc PCI Bridge [IGP 340M]
00:03.0 Modem: ALi Corporation Intel 537 [M5457 AC-Link Modem]
00:04.0 Multimedia audio controller: ALi Corporation M5451 PCI AC-Link
Controller Audio Device (rev 02)
00:06.0 Bridge: ALi Corporation M7101 PMU
00:07.0 ISA bridge: ALi Corporation M1533 PCI to ISA Bridge [Aladdin IV]
00:0a.0 CardBus bridge: Ricoh Co Ltd RL5c476 II (rev aa)
00:0a.1 CardBus bridge: Ricoh Co Ltd RL5c476 II (rev aa)
00:0a.2 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Ricoh Co Ltd R5C552 IEEE 1394 Controller (rev 02)
00:0c.0 USB Controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. USB (rev 50)
00:0c.1 USB Controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. USB (rev 50)
00:0c.2 USB Controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. USB 2.0 (rev 51)
00:0f.0 IDE interface: ALi Corporation M5229 IDE (rev c4)
00:12.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)
01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon IGP 340M

I successfully patched 2.4.20-gentoo-r5 with a little work.  It seems that some
of the ATI stuff gets inserted inside the ALI section in agpgart_be.c by accident.  

I also had to change agp.h in the ATI_RS200 section to cbb2 instead of cab2. 
Once I did that, all the kernel stuff came up!  :-)

Linux agpgart interface v0.99 (c) Jeff Hartmann
agpgart: Maximum main memory to use for agp memory: 409M
agpgart: Detected ATI IGP330/340/345/350/M chipset
agpgart: AGP aperture is 64M @ 0xf4000000

Following that, I installed xfree-4.3.99.8, as suggested here.  This fixed a
problem I had with external monitors and 4.3.0 permanantly turning off the LCD.
 Thanks Hui Yu!  Great Job!  :))

I still get this line, but I'll continue to hack at it...
(II) RADEON(0): Direct rendering disabled

But I wanted you guys to know I appreciate your efforts and your progress has
not gone unnoticed.

Thanks!
