    When I boot with the linux 2.4.5 kernel (which I compiled, so the
config might be wrong) my computer loads fine until just before X is
about to start. The screen  then starts to flicker and I am forced to
reset. If anyone else has had a similar problem I'm interested in
whatever they determined the cause to be. I am running linuxppc on an
original imac with Redhat 6.1.
