Hi all!
Welcome to Cooker-PPC.
Thanks!

At least I have managed it. I have many times tried to subscribe with 
Safari as browser to subscribe and I never receive a mail. After this I 
tried with MS IE 5.2 for Mac to subscribe and it works. No idea why?

I´m very frustrated because:

I have installed Mandrake 9.1 and the benh-kernel-rpm from MandrakePPC
9.1 CD´s. After reboot I got an Xserver running but with flickering
stripes all over the screen.
Until now I have read many articles in the mailinglist and tried much
that configurations i.e. "viedeo=ofonly" but nothing worked.
Is anybody out there with the same iBook who solved this problem?
Andreas and I had a couple of private email exchanges before he got its
subscription to cooker-ppc working. We have exactly the same laptop
except the video card.
- I have a radeon M6 LY which is pefectly working with 2.4.20-benh 
(from
the CDs) as well as the testing 2.4.21-benh from MDK Club.

- his card is a radeon M7 and any benh previously mentioned kernel 
can't
get it properly working (even with my XF86Config-4).

So the problem obviously comes from the M7 revision.
I thank you, Olivier, for your short description of my problem
Danny reported success with the video=radeonfb kernel option:
I tried this too but it doesn't work for me.
