Re: ATI Rage + with OS X in a Beige

[David M. Ensteness]

1st Its the density of the RAM cards not the speed that matters. Beige 
G3s and even Blue and Whites can only address certain density chips. 
Speed and density have nothing to do with each other.

2nd The graphics chip he is talking about is the onboard graphics, so 
he can't pull the card, there is no card.

Chris,

You'll almost definitely have to pull the ATI card to install X, with 
your monitor hooked up to the onboard video socket.  Then, after the 
install, you should be able to re-install the ATI, and hook up the 
monitor to the video card.  As for PC 133 memory, I've had the same 
problem with the system recognizing only half.  You'd be better off 
getting PC 100 for it. It supposedly has something to do with chip 
density.

    I am currently using a Beige G3 with an ATI 3D Rage II+ DVD video 
card, running OS 9.1.  However, when I try to install Mac OS X on it 
I get a kernel panic.  The only things Ive had added to the computer 
is that card and some PC133 256MB RAM, which is only accessed as 
128MB each.  Anyone know how I can get this to work?  ATIs website 
was no help.
Thanks
Chris
