Huh?? I am using my CyberVisionPPC since several
years now, and Linux has never been running under other graphic devices (did
not even try it with AGA) than this one.

Well, wait, which boothack version do you run, or better, under which OS (3.1
vs. 3.9) and with which AmigaOS-side PPC kernel (PowerUP vs. WarpOS). I seem
to remember once having had such problems too.

I am going to do some testing tonight, but first I have to finish work here..
