You're welcome!


Note: Due to some bugs the X Window System has been broken on Linux/m68k since the XFree86-to-X.Org transition which means the current version of X.Org in Debian unstable does not work, you will have a text user interface for the time being.

Thanks for your responses. Obviously, I would only be interested if full gui was supported.. how would Xfce run on my spec amiga? Also since my target platform is a1200 i would need working pcmcia net drivers too :( damn.

I glanced through that link of pcmcia cards supported. I have a linksys card so i may have a shot. Dont know the model as i'm not at the studio..
