There is common issue with the r300 driver in Mesa and Radeon cards on G4 |

Macs. When you have KMS enabled and to see if useing opengl you get this. |

There are two ways to resolve this |
19 |
|
20 |
1. set you default display to 16 in xorg.conf, but on PowerBook you really |
21 |
see the drop in depth bot so much in iBooks. |
22 |
|
23 |
2. apply a patch found here |
24 |
<https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=746272> |

I would much rather do option 2 and test that, however I am having some |
27 |
difficulty learning how to apply patches and reinstall in gentoo. In debian |
28 |
or ubuntu i would apt-get source the package, apply the patch, then |
29 |
recompile and reinstall. Can someone point me to resource that can help. I |
30 |
really cannot find it in the gentoo wiki, but I admit it may be I am not |
31 |
search for the correct thing. Thanks! |
