fixes for Apple OpenFirmware 1.0.5.
These fixes go in nvramrc. However, OpenFirmware does not use
nvramrc unless you set the variable use-nvramrc? to true, for
example by doing
nvsetenv use-nvramrc? "true"
This solves Andrew's problem, which I also had.

By the way, all this is from memory because I don't have access to the
machine it happened on right now.
I hope this helps,

I am running X 4.0.3 on an 8500 powermac (controlfb), kernel 2.4.
If I use 8bpp all is well (kernel parameter: video=controlfb:vmode:14,cmode:0).
If I use more bpp then the screen image is displaced to the right, and
wraps around onto the left of the screen. Having the left of a window

I'm running X 4.0.3 on an 8500 powermac (kernel 2.4). If I leave
the computer alone, after a while the screen goes blank. Normal!
But not everything blanks: the clock for instance keeps being drawn,
leaving a black screen with a clock on it. If I wait longer, eventually
everything goes black, ev

Sorry about that! It was all in my other post:
8500 powermac (controlfb), kernel 2.4, 8bpp, kernel parameter:
video=controlfb:vmode:14,cmode:0.

I can see a number of differences between our setups:
(1) You are using a 2.2 kernel, I am using a 2.4 kernel.
(2) You have controlfb using video mode 13 and color mode 2.
I am using video mode 18 and color mode 1.
(3) I use the default framebuffer modes. This gives me (XFree86.0.log)
