Powerbook G3, video device not found



Hi All-

I have just installed woody on my Powerbook Bronze, and I have hit a wall
trying to get XF86 4 running.  I have been running MkLinux for the past two
years, and I thought it was about time that I made the change :)

I am using the 2.2.19 kernel, and I installed off the net, so I am pretty
sure all the software is up to date.  Basically, the problem is that my
video card is not being found, even though it shows up in the startup
message and 'X -scanpci'.  I included all the info that I thought would be
helpfull because I have basically run out of ideas.

Some other info that might be usefull...  I am using an external monitor
since my LCD is cracked.  I have been told by a friend that should not
really make a difference, but I thought I would throw it in there...

There must be someone on this list running XF86 4 on a Lombard.  If you
have any tips, I would love them.  I want a GUI agian!!!

Thanks for any help-  Neil Macneale
