Are there issues with 3.9 and Sparc64's with ATI Mach64 cards and X?

I cant seem to find a happy place to have X running. All I get is a
black screen. I tried several diff mem settings, screen sizes, etc and
still nothing but black screens.

I ask becasue this is the same on both my Sparc 10's

Has someone have a working config?




Lots of people do.
Works fine on my U5.

see /usr/X11R6/README.

Read it, follow the instructions, look at your dmesg, take the proper
parts from the README file, and you will have no problem putting a
working config file together.
