Ooops... I neglected to mention that the other system on which this set of floppies failed is a beige PowerMac G3 300MHz minitower. On the G3, the video controller is (according to lspci) "00:12.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc 3D Rage I/II 215GT [Mach64 GT] (rev 9a)" On the PowerMac 6500, the video controller is (again according to lspci) "00:12.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc 3D Rage I/II 215GT [Mach64 GT] (rev 41)" Hope this helps! Let me know if there is any more information you need. Enjoy! Rick -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
