Sorry, but that is just nonsense. There is no OPen GL support for ATI Rage
II, nor ATI rage Pro (which I believe my PB G3 has) with the exception of
the Lombard series (also ATI Rage Pro, but more video ram, and the drivers
definitely do not work on the Wallstreet series). Even for the Lombard there
is no 3D support. 2D support for the Lombard was only introduced with
10.1.5.
