    Short answer: there are no 3D accelerated drivers for Linux PPC. According to my cursory Google-searching, there aren't any official plans to offer one either.

    you can change the resolution with the nvidia driver. edit your
    Code:
    /etc/X11/XF86Config-4
    and change the driver to nv and add the resolutions you want.
