So if I understand correctly, I can replace the chip in the LC475's. I
thought as much. Now do you know the chip number on the chip because if my
boss buys these chips (im guessing there pretty cheap) he would like to
buy them in bulk so he doesn't pay delivery charges.

Do you know the chips number for the ones that aren't floating point
emulation doesn't work? We have like 75 LC475's :)

Your right. DSELECT does not work at all, I was planning to try dpkg -i
but will the bug stop X windows and opera to work?
