Question for you...
I have a Rage II card which sort of works. it will boot, but will die
shortly after starting X. lots of artifacts

I also tred a Rage pro card(2 diffrent models) and they crash on startup
everytime.

Is there ANY RAGE support in these kernels even for older cards?

I am using 2.2.7 with YDL on an ANS 700
