startx fails on Clamshell iBook with wsfb



Hello,

I'm trying to setup Xorg on my Clamshell iBook (300 MHz).  It has an
ATI Rage Mobility AGP card (4 MB).

# pcictl pci0 list
000:11:0: Apple Computer UniNorth AGP Interface (host bridge)
000:16:0: ATI Technologies Rage L Mobility (VGA display, revision 0x64)

# uname -a
NetBSD Klapprechner2 6.1.3 NetBSD 6.1.3 (GENERIC) macppc

"X -configure" fails with "No devices to configure. Configuration
failed."

I have created the following /etc/xorg.conf:

Section "Device"
    Identifier  "ATI Rage Mobility"
    Driver      "wsfb"
EndSection

Then, "X -config /etc/xorg.conf" works.  It shows the black/white
background with a movable cursor.

However, "startx" doesn't work.  The screen becomes black for a second,
then I'm thrown back to the console without an error message.

There are no "(EE)" error lines.

I'm using the default .xinitrc, which tries to start twm.

Any hints and help are appreciated.

Kind regards,
Joshua Krämer
