Mounting CF card
I just bought the new Canon Digital Rebel XT 350D, and I want to know how I can mount a CompactFlash card (Lexar 1GB 80x). I need help mounting the CF card, and also want to know if there are any reliable apps for converting RAW image files. I'm running Debian Sarge on an Apple PowerBook G3 500 'Pismo,' with the 2.6.8 kernel. I tried to find a solution on Google for mounting the flash card. I tried code:mount -t vfat /dev/sda2 And even to specifically allocated directories. I am met with the following response: code:mount: special device /dev/sda2 does not exist I tried several variations, including sda1, sda3, sdb1, sdb2, etc., but none provided results. When looking for /etc/fstab and /etc/mtab, neither were found. I also tried code: mount -t vfat /media/flash only to be responded with the directions for mount. If someone could help me out with mounting and with the program for converting RAW files, I'd be very appreciative. I wouldn't want to have to return to proprietary software (OS X) just to care for my first love of photography in my switch to digital. Thanks a lot!

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I think (but I'm not sure at all...) that it should be treated like an usb-pen device, i.e. you have to mount it as your first scsi disk available (if you don't have any scsi disk it will become sda (sda1 for first partition if you have previously formatted the disk)). So, if you miss entries in fstab you should issue a command like mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /media/cf-disk or substitute sda1 with sda if your are using cf drive raw (quite unusual, but sometimes it may happen if the first time you mounted it on win) -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFCs+9mr3B1eOWmOnIRAloWAKDQDrI1rGAst/od2fqLcQc3WqtdqQCeIwQJ BsQdjcMJ2Jyw/bvY63d98mY= =4Rhw -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

White Selection Bars in Thunderbird Firefox
Hi, In both Thunderbird 1.0.2 and Firefox 1.0. on Sarge, when I select a menu or sub-menu item, the selection indicator is completely white and opaque; no text is visible through the selection. Admittedly not a major issue but an annoying one nonetheless. Neither Mozilla 1.7.4 nor any other app I've used has this problem. Anyone else experiencing this? Is it a known problem? If not, any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks, Joe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Porting ppc Linux to Xbox 360?
Hi all Powerpc on Mac is gone. I'm looking for another ppc computer for the day when the Titanium IV that I have currently will be gone down the river. I learned that Xbox 360, which will be available this holiday season in Europe, Japan, and North America http://www.xbox.com/en-US/xbox360/factsheet.htm has an IBM Powerpc CPU, with 3 cores, running at 3.2 GHz each. With just a fast glance on the factsheet above it seems to me this machine could be worth running an OS being worth the name. Some Hardware excerpts (available from the page mentioned above): --- Support for DVD-Video, DVD-ROM, DVD-R/RW, DVD+R/RW, CD-DA, CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW, WMA CD, MP3 CD, JPEG Photo CD Wi-Fi ready: 802.11a, 802.11b, and 802.11g Memory: 512 MB of 700 MHz GDDR3 RAM ATI Graphics Processor 10 MB of embedded DRAM (that's not that much, is it?) Detachable and upgradeable 20GB hard drive It seems there's already some work planned to port Linux to this little jewel: http://www.free60.org/wiki/Main_Page So here's what I'd be interested to know: Are there chances that those maintaining today's ppc branch of the Linux kernel, and the rest of the ppc linux system, might want to turn Xbox 360 to a full fledged PPC Linux computer? Anyone out there with the necessary knowledge being interested in that? Don't leave me alone with PeeCees. Anyone out there?

Sound in Gnome
I just switched from kde to gnome, and Sound is not working again. I was wondering, what does it mean when you get an error message saying Failed to construct test pipeline for 'ALSA-Advanced Linux Sound System Architecture'? Quickly running lsmod shows that all the sound modules I had before are loaded, I am really hesitant to just try and pipe everything through esd, one main reason being I finally had sound in MOL, and when I had gnome before, and everything piped through esd, I couldn't get MOL's sound working. I just went into Desktop Preferences Multimedia Systems Selector, so please let me know if that is also not the right way to do this. --Mike S -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

It's because they're prepared to pour money into that market until they're eventually awarded the title of *the* entertainment company. It's exactly what they did in the browser market, and to support it by buying their console is just like supporting their browser by using it. Whether you choose to use their browser for browsing game sites or browsing linux sites, you still help them to say that they have the number one browser. Which is all they care about in the end. Every extra console they sell helps them to say to kids that *they* have the product of choice for games.

Well, we can say that a certain course of action is unwise without already having the alternatives worked out. Often, making that first decision is the only way we note the importance of our situation, and take the time to *find* alternatives. But I don't see apple leaving PPC as a crisis. To me, PPC is just a more technically likeable architecture that happens to run Debian as well as x86, and happens to have nice iBooks. I see no problem with x86, as long as there's competition within that market. Lately, there's been lots. It's well past the point where x86 was thought to be dying because of technological limits. But even sticking with PPC, there are custom PPC boards, Apple clone manufacturers, and Amiga boxes, I think. With all the X Boxes being manufactured, that should help to keep PPC prices down. There's also POWER, as you mentioned. Then there is Cell coming up, which will be in PCs, run Linux, and probably provide a few new options worth considering. It also shares a Power(PC?) main core. -- Lee. Please do not CC replies directly to me. I'll read them on the list. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Any supported 802.11a USB/Firewire cards on powerpc?
Hi, It turns out I need to run 802.11a these days (not enough of the 2.4 Ghz spectrum around my house!). So, airport hardware is not an option (not that it always works with Linux anyway). For my powerpc (mac) based systems I'm stumped. Is there anyone out there that has used an 802.11a device with Mac hardware (I only have USB and firewire on my G4 laptop)? Heck, at this point even an OS X compatible device would be a start; at least I might have the option of working on Linux support from there. But I've not had luck even locating a device that claims support for Mac OS X (I've found bluetooth USB adapters, but not 802.11a). Cheers!
