Sure, I also did a Debian 6.0 install (MintPPC actually) just to see if =

But I suppose this is probably not worth the time as Justin mentioned =
that the driver is broken. Maybe it's just time to retire and replace =
this iBook with something else :) The hoarder in me just has a hard time =

or some other card that works and maybe find a use for this old laptop =
somewhere.
Thanks anyways for all the input and help!
