Looks like this gets ask quite often, but I didn't find a solution to
fix my problem. I have Debian PPC running on Powerbook G4, I'm trying
to get XFree86 running... I'm using whatever is available in the
unstable branch, 4.1.0.1, I believe.
Linux version 2.4.20-pre7-ben0 (root@floater) (gcc version 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerelease)) #1 Fri Sep 20 00:13:16 PDT 2002
cpu : 7455, altivec supported
clock : 667MHz
revision : 2.1 (pvr 8001 0201)
bogomips : 665.19
machine : PowerBook3,4
motherboard : PowerBook3,4 MacRISC2 MacRISC Power Macintosh
detected as : 73 (PowerBook Titanium III)
pmac flags : 00000003
L2 cache : 256K unified
memory : 256MB
pmac-generation : NewWorld
The problem is that X just doesn't seem to want to see the device.. I
get an error below:
XFree86 Version 4.1.0.1 / X Window System
(protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6510)
Release Date: 21 December 2001
If the server is older than 6-12 months, or if your card is
newer than the above date, look for a newer version before
reporting problems. (See http://www.XFree86.Org/FAQ)

Fatal server error:

I think I've tried just about every suggestion I've seen out there. But
I obviously don't have the right recipe, I used fbset -x get the modes
for the monitor. My XF86Config-4, and kernel config are attached, the
full log file available on request. Any suggestions? Thanks in
advance.
