First thing, I know others are having this problem, my ATI Rage  128 card has not worked since Xorg 6.8.2.  I was wondering if  anyone knew if there is any work or possible fixes for this?  So  now I am using my onboard video (Via), well I was until  yesterday.  Xorgcfg configures the layout to use the vesa driver,  which was fine.  I recompiled my kernel the other yesterday and now

I  think it must be something with dri, glx, ...etc ?   I am  running 6.1 PRERELEASE,  I cvsuped this morning and compiled a new  kernel tonight.  Any help would be much appreciated, I am  completely frustrated right now. :-|

Well I put "1280X1024" in all the Screen subsections "Display"  and I
was able to start xfce4.  I guess it is because of the vesa driver and
Xorg trying to to probe for monitor capabilities, .... or the knudson
valves were stuck. :-)
