OOPS in 2.1.130 Mach64 driver.

Hi there...

I just patched my kernel up to 2.1.130, and yes 'basted turkey' is very
good, but...
I tried the new Mach64 fb driver, and it causes an oops on boot:
Unable to dereference the NULL pointer

And I can copy the rest out for you if you really need it, but I don't
have time right now (writing out those wretched oopses takes ages).
Everything works fine without the Mach64 driver compiled in.

Pertinent hardware:
ATI Xpert@work 4mb AGP (Rage 3d pro chipset)
PII-266, 64m ram.
It doesn't even get up to mounting the root partition, so I don't think
software versions will help.

I looked in the Docs directory, but there was nothing on the mach64
driver.

Thanks,
Peter
