[dmoulder@csse.monash.edu.au: Re: PowerPC XFree86 4.0.1 builds revisited]

[branden@deadbeast.net (Branden Robinson)]

I only have a 15" monitor hooked up to my 7200, so I don't know. I haven't
been able to get it cranked past 640x480, even though I added a meg of VRAM
so I'd be able to do 800x600 at 24-bit depth.

Can anyone else help him?

     Wow.  XF4 takes quite a bit longer to build on this 7200/90 than
     XF3, which
     took a mere 5h46m.

   I also have a 7200/120.
   
   Did you have a problem with the screen been wrapped around for a
   1024x768 resolution?
   
   I have included my XF86Config for comment if you think that I may have
   made a mistake with it.
   
   Thanks for any info etc,
