Here is the output on starting it: Xpmac / X Window System (X11R6.3) Release Date: July 31, 1999 Running in mode=10, depth=16; req mode=0 depth=0 Using VT number 7 Mapped frame buffer (physaddr 0x81800000 size 0xea610) at 0x30057000. C&T 6555x detected. Mapping MMIO/IO regsiter... Mapped physaddr 0x81400000 size 0x20000 at 0x30014000. Mapped physaddr 0xf2000000 size 0x1000 at 0x30034000. C&T 6555x successfully mapped. Starting acceleration... Running WindowMaker-0.60.0-4, on a PowerBook 2400/180 The only thing I saw out of the ordinary, were the verticle bars that would appear when moving windows fast. (Altho moving the xmms (mp3 player) window didn't seem to leave any artifacts) Also, if I drug windows between desktops, verticle bars or other artifacts would appear in the window being moved. Usually Yellow or Blue it seems (this could just be for me tho) I booted in Linux with it running a video driver (not the OF based one), does this make a diffrence, would you like to know of any other setups? On a side note, I noticed that when I run with the video driver on the 2400, the first time I start X, instead of a "grey" pixely screen, it has a blue hue to it, and it will seg fault, but if I try running it again, it starts up correctly, and goes into WindowMaker. On my machine, I was able to exit WindowMaker just fine with out any errors, or hard reboots. I'll keep playing with it, and tell you what I find, if you have any specific requests, please do ask! Thanks for your hard work, time and effort!!!! Don Lunder PS After Spell checking the email, I see that register has a typo in the Xpmac out put.
