Radeons and VGA-Out? (was: Re: m3mirror problem)

I don't use it myself (my ibook has an M6), but I've seen it work. I have an iBook2 700Mhz with an 16MB M7 Radeon Mobility, is there anything I can do to make use of the VGA-Out, even if it is only X mirroring? -Thomas

Rip CD with an iBook G3

Hi all, I got a iBook G3 900 and I wanted to know if there's any graphical software to rip CDs, because a lot don't work due to the special kind of cdrom drive that's in this computer. Is there any, or should I use cdparanoia or something similar ? Thanks in advance, -- Lucas Moulin <[EMAIL PROT
