Xorg driver for ATI Rage 128 available somewhere?

Hi all,

I'm trying to get X running on a ATI Rage 128 AGP card. Unfortunately, the xorg-xf86-video-ati package is not sufficient to get X running smoothly and with the correct screen resolutions. /var/log/Xorg.log.0 shows that the Xorg r128 module is missing. (the r128 kernel is loaded at this time).

How could I possibly get a proper r128 Xorg driver?

Thanks for giving me some feedback.

Hi az_ua,

did I mention already that you are the best? :-)

I haven't been aware of this package search in the cooker before.

So, I downloaded the tazpkg from your link and it works like a charm with the latest rolling 5.0-rc4.

During the installation of the package it claimed to have the mesa-dri-r128 package, too. I found it in the 4.0 repository and installed it as well.

X now recognizes my monitor correctly and everything performs quite well.

Thanks again! Slitaz rules!
