Re: Disabling Onboard Graphics

2011-06-02 Thread Jonas Ulrich 
I'm not sure, but I have used a PCI video card with a beige G3, with
Xpostfacto with 10.3.9, and had no problems even though I didn't disable the
on board card.

 Hi, Kris.
 
 Just exactly how would I go about doing this on my Beige G3 (OS 10.4.11 via 
 XPostFacto)? It has a Radeon 9200.

See this thread :

OWC is the XPostFacto home, so their forums are valuable mine of information.
