So, I'm trying to get my new G5 desktop set up, and was having a hard time getting X to work, until I found out that it aparently is required to run using the fbdev driver. Has there been any work on getting X to run natively? fbdev performace, while not horrible, isn't really the best, and it'd be nice to have X directly working with my Radeon 9600XT card.
Has anyone gotten this to work, or know what's keeping it from working? I can get X to start up, but the display (an Apple Cinema Display 20) goes blank, and won't come back without a reboot. Any help is greatly appreciated. Pat -- Purdue University ITAP/RCS --- http://www.itap.purdue.edu/rcs/ The Computer Refuge --- http://computer-refuge.org
