Hello,

i am using the atyfb driver on my powermac 5500 (ati rage II 215GT). after upgrading the kernel, three vertical bands of visible distortion appeared in my console. they are not videomode-tied (tried almost all my card supports) and thus i suspect some breakage in the driver.

can anyone please have a look at it?
moreover, what could cause such an effect? would it be memory clock or pll programming? please enlighten me a bit, i am curious.

thanks a lot,

Gil Bahat
