Public bug reported:

I was working on bug #1541082 which was reporting "blotchy" graphics
images on my PowerMac3,1 with Rage ATI Pro 128 card . . . and got the
suggestion to try to add the "r128" driver, which I did.  After that the
display went black.  After fiddling around with it, I removed the r128
driver, made an xorg.conf file . . . and after numerous attempts to get
the display back, today I got "fbdev" and mode "1920 x 1200" to bring
the GUI back online . . . but, there was another "xorg" crash on reboot,
which I reported, along with filing this bug against the r128 module for
this PPC machine.
