1) After using LinuxPPC for a few years, I now have a number of
kernels that come up in the BootX menu. Which one is the standard
kernel for YDL 2.1 (fuji)?

2) When I was running LinuxPPC 2000, Linux seemed much faster
than my current install of YDL 2.1. Are there any good speed
tweaks?

3) In the install doc, it mentions a number of video arguments
that can be passed through the bootx menu. The installer did not
find my VillageTronic MP850 Video card. Is there some way that
I can get accelerated video for linux? Where are the docs for
the video mode codes (I know of man vmode, and know that I want
vmode 19, but I don't know how to tell BootX to talk to the video
card. (Geert, I'm still working on the xFree86 config changes.
We'll see if that helps.)

Thanks in advance.
