[Cooker] openldap-2.0.21-1mdk not working : pb in schema files
I have a working openldap-2.0.19-1mdk and I upgarded today to 2.0.21-1 Here are the problemes : 1) typo (?) in usr/share/openldap/schema/misc.schema : (last line) mailRoutingAddr instead of mailRoutingAddress 2)/usr/share/openldap/schema/nadf.schema is missing I copied the one from 2.0.19 and there are an error : AttributeType not found: lastModifiedTime I found that it is an obsolete attribute of cosine.schema Now it is modifyTimestamp I replaced lastModifiedTime by modifyTimestamp in nadf.schema and the server works now. But , indeed, it is better to get the official misc.schema and nadf.schema . It seems there was a lot of changes in schema files between 2.0.19 and 2.0.21 FC

It is the standard power mac in 1996. A lot of linux ppc developpers started coding with it. Paul MacKerras for example. But they have now G3 or G4. I am unable to found a config file on the net. This is a good machine to do a server/firewall/...(good scsi, multiple pci slots,...) so X is not absolutely necessary but it is always better :-) Also, have you experimented with passing and video= kernel arguments or checking/unchecking NoVideo in BootX? same results lspci 00:0b.0 Host bridge: Apple Computer Inc.

Re: problems with 2.4 kernel on oldworld mac
Chris Mann wrote: okay, i rebuit for the right processor this time :) still hangs at the same place. worse off than i was with the mandrake kernel and initrd image. i've been thinking about moving /boot over to the ide drive. is this all i would have to do (besides telling bootx where to boot from) to bypass this whole scsi issue? that way i could tell if it's really a scsi issue or something else with my machine. Have you tried kernel 2.4.10-ben0 from ppckernel.org (benh-devel). it works nicely for me on my full scsi PM 7500 (2 scsi disks: 1GO macOS + 3,2GO Linux) FC

There is another user with an OldWorld machine having considerable trouble with 2.4 also. I just downloaded 2.4.10-ben0 from ppckernel.org and tried it. It works ! At least the non-graphics apps (because I have another pb with X). Now I have a very old box with the most recent linux kernel, and a work box (1000Mhz PIII) with a 2.4.3 :-) FC
