Dual display and compaible USB wireless iBook G4

[Andres Garcia]

Hi everyone, I am running both FC3 and FC4T1 on my iBook 800 Mhz G4. 
I've been using fedora for a while and I have been mucking with fedora 
on PPC for a few months and posting on the ppc forums at 
fedoraforum.org. I consider myself fairly well versed as i have solved 
every other problem i've come up with (except the damn skin not showing 
up in mplayer from the FC3 rpm i used). I am trying to set the ibook up 
to use the vga out and to have wireless from a wireless adapter (since 
the airport extreme is not uspported).

Does any one know any good, pref. cheap wireless usb adapters that are 
compatible with fedora on PPC, I don't know much about usb wireless 
adapters and I didn't see a list ? pref. one of the thumbdrive sized 
ones or a smaller one with a little cable going to it. Can I basically 
use any adapter that works on fedora x86?

Also. I am trying to get it set up to mirror the display to the video 
out so I can hook it up to the KVM on my desk (which works, i can see 
video on the display that looks like its from open firmware. . . 
something about initializing fake display and "calling quiesce"). 
However I can't get xorg to seem to use the monitor, i have set up my 
xorg.conf using system-config-display for dual monitor using the radeon 
9200. everything looks good, and fairly similar to my x86 box, is this 
just not supported on PPC. . . or this peice of hardware yet?

Thanks ahead for any input,
Andres Garcia
