M42 Lenses will support M42 Camera natively. M42 are manual cameras, thus no AF support at all.

thanks blurblock! the jolos adaptor: http://www.rugift.com/photocameras/minolta_af_lens_adapter.htm
supports zenitar and praktica lenses, do you know what other lenses (makes) that will work with this M42 adaptor? MF is not an issue, just the thought of the possibilities of using lenses like contax are exciting enough ;)
