I remain a user of this project, although I'm too stupid to contribute anything useful... I'm using Etch on a 1400, and X11 with Openbox, Sylpheed and Dillo is entirely useable fo light email/web browsing (mine's a 64MB, 166MHz model). I have some problems, too - there are nticeable 'lines' continuing beyond the corners of windows across the desktop. Is this standard for the hardware/drivers, or is it an indicator of misconfiguration and/or damaged hardware? Also, the (unstable) 2.6 kernel doesn't boot - I'm sure I saw a mention of it working on a 1400 at some point, could someone explain how to get it working?
