A person has a ATI Radeon 9200SE 5964 (AGP)and with 2.6.38-rc4-git4+ it works while with 2.6.38-rc5 there are certain (not all) modelines with low dotclocks that end up being totally out of sync. Here's an example of a non-working modeline for him with the newer kernel, vs. the older one step back before the patch with the above change... # toki 256x224@xxxxx 15.6774Khz ModeLine "256x224x59.61" 5.518455 256 272 304 352 224 235 238 263 -HSync -VSync There's a lot of other ones thought that can work with the same lower dotclocks, so I'm not sure why that is, but I can have him test with that change in the legacy pll computation reversed. Yet from what I can tell, that is the only code his Radeon should be hitting that changed in the patch.
