Xorg should work the same with any system once the basic tweaks have been s=
etup.
All of them should be covered.
Is Option "UseFBDev" "off" only for the R128 cards on the Powermac and not =
for the RV 200 QW (Radeon 7500)?
Do I need to connect solely to the mga and then plug into the radeon?

Yeah, I see the vert and horiz for the G3. It worked with another monitor.

Maybe loading vesa would work?

AEI should have zero effect on output, since it has nothing to do with that=

On i386, I see

Your Xorg.0.log from the forums post doesn't show that.=A0 But it would sti=
