Here's some patches to get POST working with XGI Z9. I have tested them with the following card: http://www.roboard.com/Files/RB-100/MiniPCI-VGA-Z9s_UM_v1r1A.pdf I'm using the card on an ARM board where the bootloader knows nothing about VGA or VGA BIOS, so having POST support in the kernel driver is mandatory. With these patches the memory size is correct detected, R/W test passes and it's possible to use e.g. framebuffer console.
