TiBook w/Radeon Sleep???
There's a whole slew of posts below about people having trouble with sleep on the latest Radeon Mobility equipped TiBooks (550 and 667 MHz models). Did anyone find any solutions? I have a TiBook 550, with Mandrake 8.2 and the "radeon" kernel. Problem: Can't wake from sleep (crashes) and video not accelerated. Any 2001 TiBook success stories out there? Kernel recommendations? I'm a newbie so please don't hesitate to offer answers that seem obvious. Cheers...

You can still use the BootX app, you'll just need to setup the entries yourself, rather than run the Applescript wrapper.

It turned out that devfs was not running; on oldworld BootX login's chkconfig --on devfsd is useless as the partitions are not mounted with devfs [no /dev/.devfsd file]. One must explicitly add devfs=mount to the kernel arguments. This has the added benefit of making the tun module do something useful for MOL [though it gets the link wrong /dev/net/tun -> misc/net/tun should go to /dev/misc/net/tun], and the evdev module allows /dev/input/keyboard for use with pbbuttonsd, which is nice for us laptop users. Upshot: use devfs to get some advanced functionality, you will need kernel argument devfs=mount to do this. Q.
Applescript error
I have an idea of what it could be, I took a look in the AppleScript source of BootX setup (Install Mandrake PPC) to understand why I get "Sorry, can't setup BootX", and I saw something like : select file bootxSettings of folder "Preferences" of folder "System folder" of startup disk... And u know... I am french so I got MacOS in french... in the french version, System folder become "Dossier système" and Preferences folder become "Préférences", so I tried to modify this value everywhere in the script but I got the same bug...

Re: error -39
thank you, I did that, now I can pass that bug, but now I got a other bug, I launch "Install Mandrake PPC" (AppleScript file), it work until I can choose the mode (graphical, text), I click one, the small box desapear 5-10 sec. and I got this message : "Sorry, can't setup BootX", and I got that in all the cases, even if I choose text mode... - Original Message - From: "Stew Benedict" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, April 30, 2002 1:02 PM Subject: Re: error -39 > > On Tue, 30 Apr 2002, Tarik Ansari wrote: > > > > > Hello, > > > > I have a PowerMac 440/160, when I lunch "Mandrake Linx Install.sit", I have > > an error -39... what do I must do ?? > > > > I've seen this on the 7600 too.

For some strange reason the file "Mandrake Linux Install.sit" has type "APPL", so the Finder thinks it is an application and tries to execute it when you doubleclick on it. The file should have type "SIT5" and creator "SIT!". Do you know what I'm talking about, Stew? As far as I remember you are making the HFS filesystem of the hybrid CD in Linux, so probably there is something misconfigured there to give files ending in ".sit" type "APPL" and creator "STi0". -Christian

Not sure what it means, but I was able to open the .sit by dropping it on Stuffit Expander, or opening Stuffit Expander and then selecting the file.

At 64M you may just make a text install, and that may even crash at some point. Graphical install definitely will crash.
