Hard to say - it depends on several things:
- someone who could fix it needs the hardware
- we'd also need documentation about the graphics chip
- if it works with other operating systems we'd need to know so we can
check what they do different. Both Darwin and Linux should work but I
have no idea if X works and if so - with or without acceleration.=20

have fun
