-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Well, thanks for the technical discussion! ;-) Unfortunately this doesn't answer the question: how do we get a 266 Mhz iMac to properly run X? I don't know where to put the video modes that were mentioned, for one thing, since they don't seem to be in the XF86Config-4 file any more. Is there a valid config file that any has that works? I've looked through the archive for the two years or so and I haven't found anything that works...
