Cool, I thought there was some sort of PRAM reset, but couldn't 'member
what it was. Hopefully, that will bring my mac back to life enough to
mess it up again. :) guess I gotta make more more boot floppies..or try
that apple floppy/bootX/boot the debian cd thing.

I'm trying to change the screen res to 1024 x 768 @ 32 or 24 bpp. The
problem is that no matter what I try, I end up with a blank screen and
the only option is to blindly type and reboot... Here is what I'm doing

Hello,
I just moved a disk to my PM9600 from an Alpha. It's a 68-pin UltraWide
SCSI, 23.2GB drive. It has a 68-pin -> 50-pin converter on it. My

to do so it says "mount: /dev/sdc6: unknown device". mac-fdisk also says

The xfree86v3 source package should be built for the following
architectures (only):
alpha arm i386 m68k powerpc sparc
