XFree 4.0.2 ATI driver

Hello, It has been reported that the new version 4.0.2 of XFree includes the accelerated server for the ATI chip. I am running this version on a Lombard, booting with yaboot and using the new input layer. The funny thing is that there are man pages for r128 and all other drivers except for

Could I please have your help? I have three Macs which I intend to use with Debian. I'm experienced in IBM PC-compatibles installations but never succeeded in a RISC one - have already tried a Digital Alpha and a beige G3. Now I have a 7200/75 from which I eliminated any HFS trac

Hi - please forgive me for a non powerpc question! I'm looking for Linux network analysis software for our little company which has a flat LAN with about 100 users running on Ethernet and Bay switches. Is there anything I should have a look at? Thanks for any help Rory -- Rory Campbell-Lan
