I have a beige G3 desktop 233mhz with 512M ram that has an ATI chipset on
the motherboard and an ATI chipset in a PCI VGA card (which the monitor is
attached to).  When I use xorgconfig I have to use fbdev as the ati choice
will not work on testing.  This gives me a 1280x1024 screen which works well
on a 17” monitor, but the colors are all wrong.

 

When I use Xorg –configure I get a working configuration with the ati
driver, but the screen is (maybe) 640x480 and that’s it.  I’ve tried merging
the two files in every combination I can think of, and am not getting
anywhere.

 

Thanks in advance for your help!
