Hi,
This version of the XFree86 package contains the gatos ati.2 drivers, but
since my patch for PowerMacs was apparently never applied to the GATOS
source, this X server crashes because it can't find a BIOS. Below a patch

also it may need to be appended with a mode seeting, ie:
1152x768-60, or whatever
Then I may need to do something to convince Xpmac to run in that mode, if

Hi Stew,
When it was time to Configure X, I chose XFree4. The installer didn't
ask to test the configuration setting, so I answered No to the question
