liveCD doesn't have the /dev/fb0 entry

Bug Description

Binary package hint: casper

So xresprobe in dpkg-reconfigure (from casper-bottom/20xconfig) always fails and if X can't figure out the monitor you get the default resolution.

adding
mount -n -o bind /dev /root/dev
works for me.

Actually 6.06 seems to work fine!

"My bad" as the kids say. I forgot we're talking about the G3, I
meant the Macbook. This thread is so old I'm forgetting! Sorry about
that!
