Hi All,
I've got a Performa 575 w/ a couple of 1 gig scsi drives and 36 megs ram.
I've installed both netbsd-current and maclinux debain 2.0.36 and am
comparing them, etc. I am having 2 problems in netbsd.
1) It appears from reading the online ethernet support page that the comslot
focus etherlan II is supported (SMC91C92) it says current underneath
kernel and doesn't mention the 575 as a non-working MAC. The thing is
however, the boot kernel message is "unsupported focus hardware".
In attempting to compile my own kernel, I haven't found a reference to it.
What's up with this?
2) X. Video is built in. It works in 2 color mode. It doesn't work in any
other mode regardless of any combinations of X servers, LKM, and pre-boot
selections. I'm confused by the seemingly conflicting info regarding
whether or not onboard video will do colors in X. Suggestions?
Bob
