Very interesting and useful info, but they don't help us to fix the basic issue.
We have several AGP cards able to work correctly BUT in passive frame
buffer only mode, therefore the c8000, a quite fast quad core
workstation , with X11, looks like a bradypus instead that a
velociraptor.
This is the moment to recompile a custom kernel with some printk.
I tried this a year or so ago. I pretty much convinced myself that the
firmware loaded
correctly, and that read and write operations seemed to work. However, I
wasn't able
to find why the the ring buffer test failed. I also checked that the
firmware was identical
to that used on hpux.
There is an ATI document somewhere on the register interface.
I understand your frustration.
