	I managed to install R5 on a PowerBook G3/300, but I could not get accelerated

73, but got always the "garbage screen". Has anyone had better results?

Which kernel version is shipped with R5? Does the kernel tell you the estimated
clock crystal frequency (XTAL) during the initialization of the ATI frame
buffer device (atyfb)? If not, they're using a kernel without the clock crystal
frequency estimation patch (present in 2.3.6).
