I installed a potato-system with kernel 2.2.17 und a Mac 8500 (with a Accelerated G3 Card and 80MB memory). I boot it with bootx (1.2.2) and most thing work fine (after some configuration problems).
But one `big' problem remains: After 10 minutes idle time the X-server (3.3.6) ends with the fatal server error shown below. Can anyone tell me where I can change `the 10 minutes' to `nonterminating'? XFree86 Version 3.3.6 / X Window System (protocol Version 11, revision 0, vendor release 6300) Release Date: January 8 2000 If the server is older than 6-12 months, or if your card is newer than the above date, look for a newer version before reporting problems.
