I'm using Debian Squeeze on a Power Mac G3 with ATI graphics board. I had to put Driver "ati" Option "NoAccel" "True" Option "UseFBDev" "False" Option "NoInt10" "True" in my /etc/X11/xorg.conf to make X11 work. Maybe this helps, I don't know if I have a Rage 128 in my G3 Mac. Good luck, Hartwig -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
