     To minimize the confusion in setting up XFree86 4.0 (since
we lack a proper configuration tool), I have posted three separate
XF86Configs for using r128, fbdev and glint. The XF86Config.readme
describes settings the BusID from the information on the graphics
card in the proc filesystem. The BusID for the fbdev and r128
XF86Config files should be checked and corrected if necessary.
I hope to gather a list together shortly of which exact Powermacs
can run which drivers for folks to reference. If you have any
information on which exact machines have successfully run which
drivers from the rpms and XF86Config files here (or any necessary
mods to them) please post those. Thanks in advance.

ps Of course this is all at the usual place..
