Jens:
Vlad D. Markov <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> posted to port-700@ and mentioned that
the pa-risc linux group had a working XFree86 config for the 712/xx. I dug
around and found:
ftp://ftp.parisc-linux.org/kernels/712/XF86Config-4.Hildebrandt
...after several hours struggling with the debian installer, and then the
pkg/apt utilities, i have a working XFree86 4.1.0 running on this card.
Attached are the xdpyinfo(1) and XFree86 startup logs. FYI, it runs nicely,
albeit 8Bpp, WindowMaker's color dithering helps greatly.
