Gentoo on ppc with GXT6500P Gfx?
Hey I have a
IntelliStation Power 9114 Model 275 1.45GHz Workstation
1-Way 1.45GHz Power4+ Processor (5223)
2GB Memory (4x 512MB Dimms) (4447)
GXT6500P Power Graphics Adapter
and was told that there would be trouble installing the powerpc version of Linux on it due to the video card.
I was going to go with AIX as a result, however, I could not find a version on Ebay to buy.
Would the ppc version of Gentoo work with this setup?
Or can you recommend another version of Linux that does cope with the video card on the ppc architecture say Yellow Dog?
Regards

config::any::ini
Config::Any::INI(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Config::Any::INI(3)
NAME
Config::Any::INI - Load INI config files
DESCRIPTION
Loads INI files. Example:
name=TestApp
[Controller::Foo]
foo=bar
[Model::Baz]
qux=xyzzy
METHODS
extensions( )
return an array of valid extensions ("ini").
load( $file )
Attempts to load $file as an INI file.
requires_all_of( )
Specifies that this module requires Config::Tiny in order to work.
PACKAGE VARIABLES
$MAP_SECTION_SPACE_TO_NESTED_KEY (boolean)
This variable controls whether spaces in INI section headings will be expanded into nested hash keys. e.g. it controls whether [Full
Power] maps to $config->{'Full Power'} or $config->{'Full'}->{'Power'}
By default it is set to 1 (i.e. true).
Set it to 0 to preserve literal spaces in section headings:
use Config::Any;
use Config::Any::INI;
$Config::Any::INI::MAP_SECTION_SPACE_TO_NESTED_KEY = 0;
