[ydl-gen] G5 dual, 2.7 GHz 20" Cinema Display

[Hal Martin]

Have you tried the computer using other displays? I'm aware that most 
Apple products don't seem to agree with Linux -- I've got Ubuntu 6.06 
(ancient African for 'can't install debian') on my PowerBook Dual Layer 
SD, and I don't have 3D-Acceleration or wireless, making it pretty darn 
useless to me. Hence why I have a love-hate relationship with Mac OS X. 
I can get into that later, my point is, try using a monitor with a VGA 
instead of DVI. Ex. a 17" LCD with 1280x1024. If that doesn't work 
either, I'd say try something else. FC5 didn't work well on my laptop (I 
had Test 3, no X, no network, no sound) and YDL 4.1 didn't either (X 
didn't work well, and I got *really* tired of waiting forever for 
terrasoft to decide that wireless was a low priority). Good luck!
