On most PPC system we use the XF68_FBDev. Unlike previous X servers this one requires more setup. First you will need to run the Xconfigurator program (this is done in the installer.) The Xconfigurator should get X up and running, however you may wish to further customize it. One way is to use the fbset program.
First put your monitor into the resolution you want:
fbset -xres 1024 -yres 768 -depth 32
Next to get a custom modeline for X:
fbset -x
You will get output such as:
Mode "name" # D: 106.735 MHz, H: 75.378 kHz, V: 93.289 Hz DotClock 106.736 HTimings 1024 1056 1192 1416 VTimings 768 772 776 808 Flags "-HSync" "-VSync" EndMode
That information should be copied into the /etc/X11/XF86Config file. It should be placed under the comment about the Apple Power G3.
Next scroll down further until you see something similar to:
Section "Screen" Driver "fbdev" Device "control" Monitor "Apple Multiple Scan 15 Display" Subsection "Display" Depth 8 Modes "832x624" ViewPort 0 0 Virtual 832 624 EndSubsection EndSection
Change the "832x768" line to "name" and the Virtual 832 624 to Virtual 1024 768. Save your changes and run X.
