Don't know anything about newer PBs; on my 3400, I have switched to Xpmac which doesn't need an XF86Config but is configured by command line arguments. You would have to get it (probably from LinuxPPC, sorry I've lost the URL -- anyone?), then alien the rpm.
I've changed the relevant section of /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf: [servers] 0=/usr/bin/X11/X vt7 -depth 16 -middlekey 109 -rightkey 117 \ -nooptionmouse -once dpms r -f 0 +kb which is of course just an example. You can add graphic chip specific options too. -fix4mb process 4MB boundary for Matrox MGA2x64 -tt128 enforce TwinTurbo128 acceleration without video driver -ct6555 enforce C&T 6555x acceleration without video driver -mach64 enforce Mach64 acceleration without video driver HTH Andre Tom <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > Anyone have potato running on a G3Powerbook (Lombard"gold")? > > I'm not sure if the XF86Config file is my problem or I'm passing incorrect > kernel arguments to BOOTX. > > My BOOTX arguments > video=atyfb:vmode:14,cmode:32mclk:90 hda=autotune > > And the response to startx > > (**) FBDev: Using default frame buffer video mode > (--) FBDev: Frame buffer device: )Ffb ATY,264LTP > (--) FBDev: Video memory: 3072K @ 0x81801000 > (--) FBDev: MMIO regs: 0K 2 (nil) > (--) FBDev: Type 0 type_auyx 0 bits_per_pixel 32 > (--) FBDev: Hardware accelerator: None > (--) FBDev: No driver support for hardware acceleraton > bpp=32, depth = 32, BitsPerRBG =8 > (--) FBDev: Using cfb32 driver > > waiting for X server to shut down Caught signal 11. > > Server aborting ... > > > thanks for any help > > -- > tom | "When we are born we cry that we have > [EMAIL PROTECTED] | come to this great stage of fools!" > | W.
