You sound like a bloody parrot. The subject line is Debian on a Q950. My C650 runs Debian fine, including the adb ports. What does BSD do that linux doesn't. I'm missing something here, how do you use a 68k mac without adb ports? What a great suggestion, use bsd and *have* to console in. If BSD is so mature why does this bug exist? What is the measure of maturity, how long its been around or how many man hours are spent improving it. If the best advise you can give Matt is run BSD and lose the ADB ports, wonderful, looks like a backwards step to me. http://murphy.dyndns.org/ might be what you meant in another thread but who knows, maybe he gave up and went on to linux.
