Hi !
Finally fixed the problem : accelerated X is running :-)
Here's the working "Device" Section : this may help people with older

No, and if you want it for 3D acceleration, you need my packages from

In the Monitor section, I tried to change this :
HorizSync 31.77,35.0,37.9,48.1,49.7,56.5
VertRefresh 60,66.67,60,70,72,75

As newbie as I am I have found a process to make it work (for me).
1-unpack the source-2.4.18 tar.gz file in /usr/src
2-ln -s /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18/ /usr/src/linux-2.4.18-newpmac
3-cd /usr/src/linux-2.4.18-newpm
