What is the mininal hardware >requirements for it? XFree 3.1 is not, specifically, but X11R6 has been ported. It only works in B&W, though, because the video drivers are not robust enough to handle color, yet. Minimal requirements? A machine that runs NetBSD with support for ADB and a display--it should run on any size monochrome screen. There may be some oddball or 24-bit cards that don't work, but I don't recall any off-hand. -allen -- Allen Briggs - end killing - allen.briggs@bev.net ** MacBSD == NetBSD/mac68k ** Where does all my time go? <a href="http://www.netbsd.org/">Guess.</a>
