Now i got the values of Video Bios,What i tried is ? I put the card in a an Intel based desktop, Hacked the bios location & loaded its values to a file, hardcoded the values in the radeon_driver.c file. Now when in run the X it passes that location & the Xserver crashes. PFA with attached the Xorg.0.log file. I kindly need some inputs.

I have installed PMC706 ( ATI RADEON MOBILITY M9) on to a Curtiss Wrights CW184 SBC, through PMC slot. I am using a native ppc toolchain of PPC 74xx to compile X sources. When i compiled the sources with freetype , fontconfig, the compilation throwed error at these stages saying Dwarf error. So , i disabled fontconfig,freetype, expat, zlib, Xt in the host .def file. Then the compilation went threw, and i got the X binaries. I did xorgcfg to generate the the X config file & i started running the X using the config file that is generated. When i see the process status it says, X as running. But the problem here is i could not see the keyboard and mouse working. There is also no display. I was not able to run any X application like xterm, xclock etc. When i run xrandr -q , i am not getting any results. When i opened the Xorg.0.log, it said (WW )Video BIOS not detected in PCI space! I am not able to gauge what could be the problem. I kindly request ppl to throw some lights on this issue. </pre> </blockquote> <pre wrap=""> Does the m9 card you are using have an x86 bios rom? If not, the driver has no way to initialize the card. If it has an x86 rom, your best bet is to use use the drm kms (kernel modesetting) in 2.6.31 or newer as it is able to initialize cards using the the tables in the x86 video bios rom.
