Hello

After some attempts and reading and re-reading the Howto=B9s, I have managed
to get YDL 2.2 up and running on an Ancient Amstrad VGA Monitor,I did this
by adding the line:-

video=3Daty128pd:vmode:8

To the yaboot.conf on my bootstrap partition. I now have the mouse fully
working and can get around better.

Could anyone tell me what line I should add to either Yaboot or XF86Config-=
4
in order so that I may use my ADC 17=B2 crt Apple Monitor. I did borrow my
pals Packard Bell Monitor and successfully got 1024x768 screen size with
32bit colour.

My machine is :-

G4/450 Dual Processor
640mb ram
ATI Rage Pro 128 card
Pioneer DVR 103 DVD_R Drive

Any help at all gratefully appreciated.

Alasdair
