Yeah,
Just shell out the money for the ^&@#&#@$@ Xi Graphics
server and stop wasting your time. It works bloody well.
Nothing personal Justin, but I've seen this too many times
on this mail list.
You spend $3000+ for a state of the art laptop, and would trade
a couple weeks of it's time for $160 of software??? Quit
wasting your time, shell out the cash, and enjoy life at 1024x768
at 24bits. It's a good trade. Yes, it would be nice if XF86
did support the ATI Rage LT Pro chipset, but ............
Why let that get in the way?
