Argh... I knew I should have tried the -rc kernels.  Compiling
CONFIG_FB_ATY_GX as a module gives me the following error:

gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.17/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes 
-Wno-trigraphs -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common 
-pipe -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=i686 -DMODULE   -DEXPORT_SYMTAB 
-c atyfb_base.c
atyfb_base.c:388: `ram_resv' undeclared here (not in a function)

atyfb_base.c:388: (near initialization for `aty_gx_ram[7]')
atyfb_base.c:250: warning: `curblink' defined but not used

The following patch fixes the error:
