Thanks. I found out when my kernel OOPSed :) I've been trying to dial in, but my connections are rather poor. The Ascend routers keep on dropping me, and pppd dies with exit code error 16 messages really quickly.

Funny. For me, wvdial picked it up, KPPP gives me Error 1 from pppd? > > 2. How do I drive the external display? I've got an ATI Radeon Mobility > > 7500.

Because the cable that Apple provides allows for that. Monitor, LCD projector, et al. A friend got his working on a M3 recently - well, just last night thanks to IRC I guess. He used a kernel patch and the m3mirror tool. Haven't tried it yet on mine. Thanks!
