Re: Question about compatibility...



Hmm, interesting. http://mac.linux.be/files/xorg/powerbook4.txt

Powerbook, using nouveau. (It seems it supports all the way down to
monochrome colordepth!?!?) Can anybody confirm whether this works or
not? I'd assume it must, if they bothered to put it there...
