Yeah I'm just shutting the lid.  But I have the older 500 mHz model.
They changed a bunch of things and it wouldn't surprise me if they
didn't change the Power Management stuff...

You might try asking the people who make pmud...

I can recommend the following mirror. Very speedy connection (2.5

pass this on to the cooker-ppc list as my mail still don't get through.

Okay I shouldn't have been replying at 4am because somehow I misread
your email.

If you're using WEP you'll want to add the following to your:
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 (where eth0 is the airport
interface).

WIRELESS_ESSID=
WIRELESS_ENC_KEY=

Also make sure you have the wireless-tools rpm installed.
You can find information on the format of the above values in the
iwconfig man page.

HTH's.

My Titanium goes to sleep and wakes up just fine.  pwrctl-local is only
used for your local customizations... it isn't necessary for normal
operation.  You should have a /etc/power/pwrctl.  

I still haven't upgraded from 8.2beta2 so I'm not sure if 0.10.1 got
included in final or not.  But if you aren't running 0.10.1 then that's
probably why it isn't working.

This is what I'm running:
[breser@titanium breser]$ rpm -q pmud
pmud-0.10.1-1mdk

8.2 PPC on Powerbook Ti G4 / pmud.rpm

2002-04-27 Thread James, Hunter

Hoi!

I installed 8.2 ppc on my powerbook t4, it goes to sleep very well but 
dosen't wake up.
I noticed that the pwctrl-local script is locatet/installed by the rpm package
at /usr/local/doc/pmu*/ and not at  /etc/power/. Should it be like that?

I copied it manually to /etc/power/, but didn't help.
Anyone who knows something 'bout that?

YDL2.2 has also the pmud and it works as it should, but they patched the 
Makefile. Hhmm..searched any source on the mdk-mirrors to compare
these things. Any hints?

Thanks, Ben!  That should get me started.

I do try to pick good subject lines.

As I said, the built-in ethernet jack works like a champ.  The problem (as
stated in the subject line, and then again in the text of the message) is
that the optional wireless airport card is not being configured.  I'll read
up on the modules you mentioned, and see if I can figure out what's going on
from there...

Enjoy!
