XFree86 v4's configuration tool is broken right now on PPC.  I think I saw
someone had created a basic script to get it to work, but AFAIK you still have
to do some config file editing.  It's pretty easy, as you no longer have to edit
any mode-lines or anything like that.  Just specify devices, and the
resolution.  The log file should tell you what resolutions are out of range.
