I've just had to reinstall debian on a PPC 7200 due to hard drive
failure. Since I essentially used the machine as an xterminal, it was
dispiriting that x crashes. I'll take a look at the relevant
files, but debian used to have a perfect x configuration for my
machine. I would be very pleased to receive or see a Mac 7200-oriented
x cfg.

1. Which version of XFree?
2. What do you mean by "crashes"? Kernel Panic or XFree error? If the
latter, what does "tail -n 100 /var/log/XFree86.0.log" say?
3. What does the section device of your current XF86Config say?
4. What video card do you use (cat /proc/pci)?

Thanks for your interest in my crazed request, but I've got it sorted now.
