>Description:
The SRM firmware on the DPWS does not detect or initialize TGA devices. I have the machine booting from a serial console, after which I attempt to start the X server. The X server core dumps with a floating point error because the card isn't properly set up. Here is the dmesg output for the card:
tga0 at pci1 dev 10 function 0: DC21030 step C, board type T8-02
tga0: 8192 x 0, 8bpp, Bt485 RAMDAC
tga0: interrupting at dec 550 irq 28

The plot thickens. Jeff just told me that the card is actually a
ZLXp-E2, not a -E1 as reported. So, if the card isn't initialized
the driver doesn't correctly identify it.
