f the iBook has a Radeon M10, that's an r300 series GPU. I found compiz and
beryl to be particularly slow on the opensource r300_dri driver, and that's
on an Athlon 64 4000+ with a Radeon X850XT.

Additionally, the Keyspan PDA USB serial converter also works fine under the
last kernel I checked (including the USB backport in 2.2.x).

done when playing with open firmware settings. Be warned: Don't type
the following commands into your OF, unless you know your machine will
survive.

Hi, I've got a weird problem with PPP connections that's beginning to baffle
me.
I've got an iBook that I've never, until now, initiated a PPP connection
with. Kernel 2.4.x fails to connect (from reading the logs it looks as
