Subject: [gentoo-dev] Anyone have a PCI graphics card on x86?

9 could use some testing on an x86 box (or anything non-sparc really) with
10 a PCI graphics card and preferably a 2.4.x kernel. Basically all that's
11 needed is to make sure that X still starts with the patch applied -- if
12 it's screwed up, X will moan about not being able to find any devices.

14 Unfortunately, my only non-headless x86 box has some kind of strange
15 dual AGP/PCI setup (weird laptop chipset...), so I'm not entirely sure
16 that my test is sufficient. Could someone with the relevant hardware
17 please lend a hand?

19 (Ordinarily I'd Cc: the relevant arch on the bug, but x86@ doesn't seem
20 to be valid...)
