I used the XFree86-3.3.6-15 suff from rawhide to do the video on my
i1400 It works great no fussing with hand config files at all. If this
stuff makes it into RH 6.2 anybody will be able to get the IBM i1400
2621 working with Linux :-)

The Lucent binary module from linmodem.org works as well in Linux as the
