David, I'm running Caldera 2.2 on a TP600 with no problems, but, from
memory, I had to upgrade to XFree86 3.3.3 in order to get the version with
Neomagic chipset support in the SVGA driver. The only other tricky part was
inserting the correct options in the XF86Config file to get the
internal/exernal switching working correctly, but somebody on the Caldera
users list put me straight on that one. The machine is currently powered
down in its bag, but if it would help, I'll post the XF86Config file to the
list.

Best,

I'm new to Linux, and have a copy of OpenLinux 2.2 I'd like to install on
my 770X.  So far the GUI is not working properly.  Any suggestions?  I've
been reading messages for this group for sometime but I've not participated
or gleamed much that I could use.  Any help would be appreciated.
