 I think I know what the problem here is, and have attempted to fix it.
The problem is that when the video-driver switch the resolution
(programming the Rage) whithout disabling the 060 caches, you end up
with black screen. I had this problem with the ET6K I had in my Hades.
However, the latest XaAES (as found in the CVS) turns the caches off
before calling v_opnwk()/v_clswk(), and this should cure it. I dont have
a binary for you right now, because I'm doing extreme changes atm. If
you cannot compile your own XaAES, can anyone here help provide a binary
for him? Thanks! ;-)
