Re: Power Mac G5 Debian Wheezy / Problem with GeForce FX 5200 Ultra

I took nouveau out of the black list.

I backed up my xorg.conf.

I made a new xorg.conf with these settings.

I rebooted and still have the black screen.

It even kills the terminal from coming up.

This is Debian Wheezy on the Power Mac G5 with GeForce FX 5200 Ultra.
