Add the line video=screen resolution. For example for 1024x768

video=1024x768-32

Hi!

I have an old G4 MDD, with an X800 card. I've just installed Debian Jessie and tried to breathe life into the 2d acceleration, but without success. If i install "firmware-linux-nonfree", then it loads the "r420_cp.bin", but then i only got a black screen after boot and the machine freezes completely.

My dmesg log:

And xorg.log after a crash:

http://oscomp.hu/depot/Xorg.0.log

I don't know if i am at the right place with this, but nobody could help me with this. Is this a known problem on PPC with X800 cards? I've read in this topic (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1825309&page=2) that radeon not works with X800 on PPC.

Can anyone help me with this?
