tibook tv-out
hi, after reading this http://lists.debian.org/debian-powerpc/2005/06/msg00569.html I was wondering if this patch is already merged into 7.1.0 and if this is by now usable on ppc ? if anyone got this to work by now any pointers to an xorg.conf for tibookIV (radeon 9000 / R250) would be highly appreciated. regards, x -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: internet from lan
this should not be, running 2.4 kernel as default with release debian 3.1, it should be running 2.6.8-3. that works fine with wall streets. as far as the current netiso, testing, maybe not. needs perhaps the 2.6.18 kernel which is still in unstable. imho, better to get sarge right, first, then later upgrade in place.

Installing onto oldworld powercenter
Greetings everyone. I have inherited five of these PowerComputing PowerCenter 132 machines. I would like to try to put Linux of some sort on them and make them useful. I know I can't boot a CD on them. I have tried many of the floppy images from http://people.debian.org/~wouter/d-i/powerpc-miboot/. I don't seem smart enough to work through the netboot procedures I find. These machines still have MacOS on them, but I hoping to use the entire disk for the install. Does someone have experience with PowerCenters that would be willing to share what has and hasn't worked? Many thanks in advance. -- Curtis Brown [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

sarge ppc eth0 config problem and old world install
Thank you brian. I downloaded several different versions and distros. Never could get sarge out of command line, but in all honesty I never redownloaded/reinstalled either. Helped me learn a LOT of valuable command line basics though : ) Now I have my old wallstreet quad booted with yellowdog 4.0 , xubuntu 6.10(from the alt. disk), OS9(just for bootx) and OSX 10.2.8 (for work cause I need to sync ical... if there was a linux cal that would sync in from the .mac server I would love to try it) I an quite taken with the ease and functionality of the xubuntu right now besides it is a little light on settings in the gui. I will probably go back and nuke the ydl and try debian again on that partition since I have already run ydl before. For the record, the xbuntu install and set up were flawless past having to boot from an os9 volume w/bootx and the quirk of having to boot from the ramdisk (copied as with the kernel from after the install from the new volume but before the first boot back to the bootx volume???) even after install and include the root=/dev/hda? in the additional arguments field. I dont remember sarge being so finiky there. That is not necessary in ydl which makes it the easiest old world install if someone has the magic kernel http://www.yellowdog-board.com/viewtopic.php?t=339 note:the directions said it was necessary The ydl also runs from the install kernel and it is not necessary to copy the installed kernel back to the bootx volume to run it. Seems the sarge install was the same but since I never got eth0 up, nor out of the command line cause I couldnt access the net for balance of the install I wouldnt have a clue. The xubuntu ppc alt disk that I downloaded/installed is using the 2.6.17-10-powerpc kernel and I have not run across any freezes or usupported hardware yet. And new .mac mail works just fine where it absolutely crawls on the ydl 4.0 Well, what have I learned so far? Simply do not trust downloaded install disks. even they they checksum I have several here that just didnt work but after redownloads, worked just fine so in the future if I have a problem on a fresh install the first thing I will do is redownload and reinstall. OH, and I love /sbin/trackpad ... saw it in the sarge files but never got to use it since I was stuck in command line but it is here in xbuntu and it is so much cooler than having to edit xorg.config : ) Happy Computing, Barry On 2006/11/02, at 13:28, brian wrote: this should not be, running 2.4 kernel as default with release debian 3.1, it should be running 2.6.8-3. that works fine with wall streets. as far as the current netiso, testing, maybe not. needs perhaps the 2.6.18 kernel which is still in unstable. imho, better to get sarge right, first, then later upgrade in place.
