Hi all!
I've got strange problem booting Gentoo 2005.0 in my PowerBook G4/400.

Boot process gets to this point:

Code:

...
* PCI: Enabling device 0000 : 00 : 00 : 10.0 (0086-> 0087)
* aty128fb: Invalid ROM signature 0 Should be 0xaa55
* aty128fb: Bios not located, guessing timings
* aty128fb: Rage128 LF M3 AGP [chip rev 0x0] 8M 128-bit SDR SGRAM (1:1)
* Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 144x48
* Registered "ati" backlight controller, level: 15/15
* fbo: ATY Rage128 frame buffer device on Rage128 LF M3 AGP


...and freezes. After 5-6 restarts it goes through this point smooth (!?) and boots ok.

Here's lspci
Code:

...
bash-2.05b# lspci -v
0000:00:0b.0 Host bridge: Apple Computer Inc. UniNorth AGP
        Flags: bus master, 66Mhz, medium devsel, latency 16

        Subsystem: ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility M3 AGP 2x
        Flags: bus master, stepping, 66Mhz, medium devsel, latency 255, IRQ 48
        Memory at b4000000 (32-bit, prefetchable)

I use 2.6.10 kernel with this config (just graphic part):

CONFIG_FB_ATY_CT=y
# CONFIG_FB_ATY_GENERIC_LCD is not set

CONFIG_FB_ATY_GX=y
....

Your video controller seems to be ati rage 128.
Why did you include radeon driver?
Drop it and then try it.

Cheers
