Linux cannot handle having the video card sharing an IRQ with another =
device. Check the video card's resources
"procinfo"
"cat /proc/pci"
and during the boot.
If it IS sharing IRQ's you'll have to move things around until this does =
not occur... then the card should work.

Subject: XFree86 Config with STB Velocity 128

Has anyone had any luck getting XFree86 working with the STB =
Velocity 128 Video card? After looking through the archives I've found =
that I'm not the first to have Linux 5.1 turn the monitor black and lock =
up the OS requiring a cold boot. TIA.

cheers,
