* Install Hamm and, when prompted for IP addresses, give
192.168.1.1 and 192.168.1.2 (even though they may both be
connecting to the 'net via a modem with a fixed IP address)
* install X on the laptop only (?)
* on the 486 type xhost +
* on the laptop type DISPLAY=ip:0.0 ;
You need to upgrade to the xserver-svga 3.3.1 that's in hamm in order
to use the Matrox Millennium II effectively. Even after that you
should probably upgrade manually to 3.3.2 that you can get from
ftp.xfree86.org. All that needs to be replaced is the one XF86_SVGA
server file.

A Debian package of 5.0 has just been released, something a lot of
users were eagerly waiting for. Earlier today I installed it, and
was disappointed to discover that GUI support was not enabled, as it
had been in the 4.6 Debian package.
I was on the point of submitting a wishlist bug report, but
I saw a while back on a friend's system that the AIC-7xxx SCSI
controller did not boot properly when using the Debian 1.3.1 rescue
disk.
