Hi Samuel,

Well the binary PPC RPM didn't work because of a GLIBC dependency issue.
I was able to get my own binary PPC RPM built after applying the attached
patch to the scripts/mol.spec.stub.

After that, I was able to run MOL (both MacOS 9 and X) fairly well.
There were a couple of glitches I noticed, both with MacOS 9.  One
is that the mouse pointer disappears for a spell during the initial
booting (it's there initially, then disappears for a while, and then
reappears later).  Another is that MOL starts in a 1024x768 X window,
then at a point during the booting of MacOS 9 switches to a console
window (also 1024x768), and I if I switch back to X, there's no MOL
there (just a widget that lets you switch back to fullscreen on the
console or set your resolution (which it says is not yet supported)).

Other than that, initial testing of the new 0.9.70 version of MOL
looks good!!!

						-Thanks

						-Bill
