Re: XFree86 on a Wallstreet PBG3

[rw <roger.wigger@hgkz.net>]

tks,

i was reading alot of stuff in different archives and i try to get more.

but i never found a working XF86Config for a wallstreet pb. it really 
would be great to see one.

cause i use bootx and i tried to add the atyfb-line as boot-parameter, 
wich gives me blinking lines on the screen and the letters are in 
background.

maybe i done it wrong, sry i am new to debian-ppc and its dark forest 
for getting a running x.

anyone got a XF86config-file for me?
