Hi Andrew,

The new framebuffer code for ATI RADEON grfx cards doesn't work correct.

After startup the screen switches to an unsupported mode, flickers and
just shows a small line at the top.I get a freq of 87 hz instead of 60.

Zhuang:~# fbset
 
mode "1024x768-87"
    # D: 44.901 MHz, H: 35.523 kHz, V: 86.960 Hz
    geometry 1024 768 1024 768 8
    timings 22271 56 24 33 8 160 8
    laced true
    rgba 8/0,8/0,8/0,0/0
endmode

switching to 60 hz doesn't improve the flickering screen.
(fbset 1024x768-60)

Probably this is connected to a warning about '*dcc2*' function I got
compiling the Radeon driver. I will recompile later to see the warning
again.

my config:

CONFIG_DRM=y
# CONFIG_DRM_TDFX is not set
# CONFIG_DRM_GAMMA is not set
# CONFIG_DRM_R128 is not set
CONFIG_DRM_RADEON=y
# CONFIG_DRM_I810 is not set
# CONFIG_DRM_I830 is not set
# CONFIG_DRM_MGA is not set
# CONFIG_DRM_SIS is not set
...

Thanks for a new -mm kernel,

Jan
