old world nonsense, please rectify
i was figuring there was something wrong with the 2.6.15 kernel. why it was deleted from the debian archives when some old world power macs still need it, and nobody responding to any of my postings here. but today i find this: http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/dapper/base/linux-image-2.6.15-23-powerpc so why am i still booting 2.6.15-1 in debian ? __ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: Screen blackout-theme Bug
it would be best if you upgrade one to etch and if the bug persists then report it. as etch is due to be release shortly, the most attention to bug fixing would be there/now, and much less chance the sarge bug gets fixed from here on. particularly if the use includes any computer science teaching, etch is much more recent, and the xorg switch from xfree is much more reliable and maintainable (another reason sarge bug unlikely to get fixed here). i would think it should run fine on these, as 2001 imac is other than lack of g4, pretty much of current generation (my neighbor has one with macosX.4 tiger on it, appears fine). i assume you know how to do upgrade. particularly of just the kernel, X, gnome and support files in order to test ? brian --- John Wyatt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, my name is John, I am refurbishing a bunch of > old iMacs for a school by installing Debian PPC on > them and I came across this bug while playing with > the themes in GDM. > > When I choose the Mist theme in the GDM display > manager, gdm changes theme then blacks out the > screen.

I googled fwcutter and found this Ubuntu page and followed its instructions.(https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Dapper) However do I need a 2.6.17+ or can I use the bcm43xx driver on learlier kernels such as 2.6.15? Things look well but I can't test my connection because I do not know if my base station extream or the powerbook airport card just went bad :(. I may have to run to the apple store to use their wireless network to find out if it the card or the base station. Until then I can't do much. But in linux the driver did load and I can see it in iwconfig. Thanks for your help -adam -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Screen blackout-theme Bug
Hi, my name is John, I am refurbishing a bunch of old iMacs for a school by installing Debian PPC on them and I came across this bug while playing with the themes in GDM.When I choose the Mist theme in the GDM display manager, gdm changes theme then blacks out the screen. I know its working back there, but it refuses to reload the screen and I have to restart the computer.I'm using Debian stable(3.1) PPC with the installation choices of Desktop with the cd install. X is using the framebuffer driver.I'm running on an old iMac(2001) with the latest firmware(also 2001) with the hard drive taken over by the installer.If you need anymore info or know who to direct my email to, please let me know. I hate to have leave this bug on the computer(or if any of you know if it was fixed in testing or unstable, please let me know that too).John Yahoo! Messenger with Voice.

Bonjour spoutnik, If you look in the archives of this thread, you will find long discussions about the "xkb-data" package in which the keyboards are defined. I do not know if you can test the improved package without upgrading Xfree to Xorg, but soon you may be likely to do so anyway, when Etch is released. I think that much work has been made on the french keyboard.

Trouble with MOL networking
Hi list, I'm expiriencing some problem with networking on MOL. I've installed the recent MOL packages from unstable (0.9.71~pre9) with tiger support, Os X boot and run fine, but doesn't recognise any network interface. I've followed the benh howto [1], the tun device is created, from Debian I can ping the address of tun but from macos i don't have any interface nor IP... On Debian my network interface is the wifi card, can that cause a problem like the one i have?
