I´m very frustrated because: I have installed Mandrake 9.1 and the benh-kernel-rpm from MandrakePPC 9.1 CD´s. After reboot I got an Xserver running but with flickering stripes all over the screen. Until now I have read many articles in the mailinglist and tried much that configurations i.e. "viedeo=ofonly" but nothing worked. Is anybody out there with the same iBook who solved this problem? Andreas and I had a couple of private email exchanges before he got its subscription to cooker-ppc working. We have exactly the same laptop except the video card. - I have a radeon M6 LY which is pefectly working with 2.4.20-benh (from the CDs) as well as the testing 2.4.21-benh from MDK Club. - his card is a radeon M7 and any benh previously mentioned kernel can't get it properly working (even with my XF86Config-4). So the problem obviously comes from the M7 revision. I thank you, Olivier, for your short description of my problem Danny reported success with the video=radeonfb kernel option: I tried this too but it doesn't work for me. http://archives.mandrakelinux.com/cooker-ppc/2003-04/msg00196.php Cheers, Regards Andreas Olivier
