9 1) it is a radeon (mobility?) either 7000 or 9200 (I forget) with 32 MB of
10 VRAM. I got mol to work by reemerging it with the correct USE-flags set,
11 then running molvconfig. MOL works at either 256(8bit) or thousands(16bit)
12 of colors, but not millions.
13 2)Yes, it is the original airport, not extreme. There is a complicated
14 precedure involving MOL that lets you use an extreme under linux that is
15 detailed on the gentoo forums.
