Comments/Problems:
Other problems:
Graphics card:
---------------
Did not find my graphics card with ATI Rage 128 chipset. Xf86cfg reports
`Generic Video card`. When trying to configure it via XF86cfg, no ATI drivers are
found at all.
Monitor
-------
Did find my monitor (Philips 107B), but was not able sync freqeuncy and Hz.
Unable go change to a resolution higher than 600*800.
Keyboard
--------
Keyboard (PS/2) does not used German but Engish key layout, despite configured
differently.
KDE
--------
Kmail has some windows larger than my max. screensize 600*800. Unalbe to press some buttons.
Looks like some Kmail windows are just too big or get a wrong screensize from OS.
br,
Michael

Ok, I have looked at and processed that report. Since this is an older
version of the same report I'll just close that one.

I don't think more testing would be very helpful.
