Hello,
I'm trying to get gxt4500 driver to work on x86 with Diamond/ATI Fire GL2 AGP

        Kernel driver in use: gxt4500

After patching Kconfig, the driver compiled but does not work - monitor shows
no signal after driver load. Realized that PPC is big-endian while x86 is
little-endian and there are no endian conversions in the driver so did this:



But nothing changed, still no signal. Any ideas?

I was able to get the ancient fgl23 driver (from AMD web site) to work by
installing Debian Woody to a small partition. It's not very useful today but
it might be possible to dump the chip's registers and compare with gxt4500.
