Ive bought a HP J6700, and ive been reading that the FX10-Pro graphics card is not supported on any linux dist.

Why is that? Is it possible to put in a supported graphic card and use Xorg with it? If not, why?

Has anyone done it? 


How is it to install debian-hppa? is it similar to the regular install of debian? 

Is debian-hppa exacly the same as regular debian?



Installation is very very easy, but performance of the system is a really bad. 

The 50% performance against HP-UX (mentioned on the website) seems to be 

the truth (on my C3700).


Main reason is - as usual - the bad code quality of the gcc compiler for PA-RISC.
