Last time I checked, it worked for me.  This may be due to the
topology of the 8100 that you have.  My 8000 died a few years ago, but
I kept the 1600x1200 screen by moving it to a carcus of a 8200.  That
machine these days runs windows.  Alas, it runs it slowly for reasons
I haven't completely figured out, but think I have narrowed down to
either a bug in windows (speed step down, but not back up) or a heat
problem that's causing the BIOS to downclock the unit.
