Hello Michael, hello all,
Looks like I need to make a custom (pre 2.4.24) kernel for the MeshCube.
Pete Popov pointed me to the patch - see below (many thanks!!). Have you
been running pre 2.4.24 kernels on the MeshCube (AFAIK the CVS starts with
2.4.24 already).
Otherwise - how to proceed for a MIPS or MTX1 specific kernel? Is that
- starting with the standard kernel source from www.kernel.org
- applying a patch (where from?) to it (I have only done this
for ARM systems so far - where this procedure is the
standard way)
Again - any hints highly welcome
regards Ralf
PS: I'll finally document all the answers I got within the process in the
Wiki => so we'll hopefully all profit from it.

original message:
I don't know which ATI Rage card you have exactly, but there is a patch
for the RageXL (tested on a MIPS board) on
ftp.linux-mips.org:/pub/linux/mips/people/ppopov/2.4/aty_nobiosinit.patch.
The problem is that at kernel version 2.4.24 or .25, don't remember
which one, the aty code was restructured and the patch does not apply
anymore.
Pete
