For this system I do not have any experience. However, for others to help you you should also supply information about the used kernel version and Debian variant (stable/unstable), especially the X packages used. I know about problems with X and the keyboard for Debian unstable on the Acorn RiscPC if a 2.4 kernel is used. Symptoms are that console switching from X via ctrl-alt-function key does not work, and some keys (including m) are not working. These problems vanish if a 2.6 kernel is used. (Does anyone know what is the reason?) So if you are using a 2.4 kernel, you could try 2.6 if it is possible for your system. However, you report that most of the time you are not able to start X and it returns an error. Can you specify the error more precisely (output to /var/log/XFree86.log). Sometimes it starts. This behaviour can also be caused by general stability problems of your system (memory timing, power supply) or a bug in a kernel driver, possibly the framebuffer driver. Peter Teichmann
