Well, almost. I've noticed some strange behavior under X now.
Most of the time, everything works fine, however:
1. Running xscreensaver with the hypercube module produces
REALLY strange lines on the screen.
2. Running aterm and raising and lowering windows doesn't
generate a proper redraw of the aterm window contents ...
sometimes.
Is anybody else running this configuration? (PowerMac Lombard,
XFree86 3.3.6) Have you seen this behavior (or an you reproduce
it)?
Additionally, does the PowerBook G3 Lombard have the Rage 64 or
128 stuff? Also, I'm currently using the FBDev server:
shouldn't I be using the Mach64 server? If so, where do I get
it? (It doesn't seem to be int he YDL RPMs.)
