I have alwys in the past been using recyled older computers, so this never
caem up.
Now I find myself in the fortunate poisiton of have several modern machines
wuth AGP 4X, AYA-100 266 MHZ bus, etc.
Here is the question, given a woidy install, what do I need to to to make
certain each of these new enhancments actullu gets used, isntead of falling
back to compability mode?
X setup? boot time kernel options? compile tiem kernel options?
And how can I determien for ceratin whether they are or are not getting
used?

company that can't stand for 1 bit of competition.
