That specific part of the website refers to an outdated upstream kernel status, not to the available Debian suport. > > O2 R10000 is NOT supported > > I think there's support now, but I'm not sure. There isn't. O2 R10000 needs some major work before it will run reliably. > > O2 R5000 - EXPERIMENTAL without framebuffer > > This should work but I cannot test it.

Currently, the kernel doesn't compile without a rather gross hack, the framebuffer is slow (but apparently stable now), and mouse detection needs another hack. IIRC there's also some problem with RTC access. So the kernel is relatively close, and everything on top of it that should just work. Thiemo
