Thanks Matt! I checked what kernel arguments I could add to set the
right resolution. On my PM 8500 I need "video=controlfb", I also added
vmode:18"" which is supported by my display. However, I cannot change
resolutions on the

2. I have PS/2 mouse type selected, but I am using the Mac mouse via the
ADB port on the keyboard. Can I just plug a PS/2 mouse in the ADB port? I
have the adapter to fit. I thought I'd ask before trying to corral one up.

I accidentally named my computer
"Pengguin", mispelling it. I went into the /etc/hostname file and changed
it to "Penguin". Do I need to change other config files too? Some
disconnect between Xclient and Xserver?

if that could be the cause right there, and not fiddle with the software
until I do get the RAM.
