Hi,
First, thanks to everyone who worked on the Powerpc port. The
installation worked great !
I got tired of RPM hell via Linuxppc and YDL, and so far, Debian
is working nicely..until I get to X. Perhaps someone could help me out

Thanks for your help. In the meantime I even got a nvsetenv output from
Guillaume for the 9500 (attached). Mine is basically the same (differences
