BR: Added "radeon.agpmode=-1" to the append line . . . as "video=ofonly" was ***already there***?? But, that didn't seem to be "recognized" until I added it in second window, i.e., "Linux video=ofonly radeon.agpmode=-1"??? The freezing problem remained when I just used "radeon.agpmode=-1" . . .
And, on reboot, I'm able to type this email . . . so, looks good. GUI is very clear, things just seem to be happening a tad slowly . . . . Only other issue of minor concern . . . no "b43-legacy driver" is found in software updates "additional drivers" . . . in the splash an http address shows fast to where the b43 driver can be found . . . can't read it. Forgive my ignorance, but would that show up where? xorg.0.log??? Might come in handy to have wifi back in the iBook . . . .
