Apple Color Plus 14" + XFree86 help needed

[Byron Desnoyers Winmill]

Does this monitor work with the video card under Mac OS?  (I'm guessing 
yes, since I have seen pretty old Apple monitors work with TiBooks.)

If XFree86 doesn't know that your video card supports that monitor, you 
may be stuck using a different X server.  I think that Xpmac will work 
with your machine.  (A beige G3 or an upgraded PCI PowerMac?)

On your earlier question: offb is the Open Firmware framebuffer.  I have 
used it under NetBSD, and it is slower than the dickens.  I have used it 
under Linux, and performance was acceptable.  YMMV.

Byron.
