When I remove them, all default modes between 640x350 and 800x600 are
deleted (bad mode clock/interlace/doublescan), 1024x768 and up are killed
due to insufficient memory for mode (not hard to figure that one out :)).
I have no idea what to put for HorizSync and VertRefresh, I've tried some
based on other powerbook tft display configs and also just didn't put
these entries in the config file. in the end, it always fails with one of
the two previous errors. The final error is "Screen(s) found, but none
have a usable configuration". damn :) I've managed to answer all my
other installation/config based questions just from searching around, this
is the one problem that I find bugger all about on google (or
anywhere else). if it's important to mention, i boot debian via quik and
do not have a macos partition (or cd) to boot from. I can send my config
file if that would help, aside from my addition of a DefaultDepth 16 line
it's a vanilla configuration straight from XFree86 -configure.
thanks again,
mike
