Yay. The 65550 is actually pretty qool; I have run mine doing sync-on-green driving a 21" Apollo monitor at 1152x900x16bpp. The XF86 driver is pretty stable; I occasionally get the server exploding when I swap back from a vty, but that's about it. At this point in time, it certainly seems to be the best chipset to look for in a portable from the free-software point of view. mike
