Hi,
I'm using an ATI All-in-Wonder 128 Pro 32MB and specify the "ati" driver
under XFree 4.0.2. That driver _should_ work for your ATI Rage 128 card. I
believe, but am not sure that under 4.0.1 the driver is called "r128" for
the Rage 128's.
In my XFree86 Config file, the video device is specified like this:
Section "Device"
Identifier "ATI Wonder SVGA"
Driver "ati"
#VideoRam 32768
#Insert Clocks lines here if appropriate
EndSection
My whole config file is here: <http://www.ifelse.org/video/>; as I was
getting some help a while back... maybe it will be useful for you. But if
you just plop it into your setup, make sure to change the monitor syncs
and mouse/kbds to yours.
Don't know much about your other card.
HTH,
Bill
