Have you tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86 ? Branden has put some work into making the debconf interface do the right thing for powerpc's. Another item to check and report on, is the results of /sbin/lspci comparing to the entries in XF86Config-4, especially BusID. -- *------v--------- Installing Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 --------v------* | <http://www.debian.org/releases/woody/installmanual> | | debian-imac (potato): <http://debian-imac.sourceforge.net> | | Chris Tillman [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | May the Source be with you | *----------------------------------------------------------------*
