If you mean that the resolution of the internal LCD was limited to the resolution of the external display, that was a bug. :) This driver allows you to change the output configurations on the fly with xrandr. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer | http://tungstengraphics.com Libre software enthusiast | Debian, X and DRI developer
missing images at ebay
Hi does anyone know why I might not see images on ebay ? am i missing some package maybe. also, is anyone running the current ibm java ? I downloaded it but have not installed it. it says redhat and suse enterprise server are supported. this may not be the latest version i got an update notice the next week after I downloaded it. does ebay depend on java ? I don't care really to deal with java right now except that ibm had some tools to download that might give me some ideas and they are written in it. also it is not clear on the novelle page whether SEL is really useable on ppc. it appears to be an "windows alternative" which is not me at all. I would rather stick with Debian IF the peace between intel and alternatives can be maintained. otherwise, Lubuntu is an option (I just made up that name). Brian Fussy? Opinionated?

Re: Sleep problems with kernels >= 2.6.21 on powerpc
Hello! I don't have traces at hand and due to lack of time cannot reproduce it up to tomorrow. However this hint may speed up your analysis!

As far as I can tell, it seems to be doing the right thing. Right now the driver defaults each output to it's preferred mode (based on edid from the monitor): (II) RADEON(0): Output LVDS using initial mode 1440x960 (II) RADEON(0): Output DVI-0 using initial mode 1024x768 what do you want to happen? if you'd rather have then both at one resolution, you can use xrandr to change the mode on either or both heads.

Hi, I would like to know if Sven Luther is still banned from debian-powerpc list ? If so, can you remove this ban ? I think (from a technical point of view) Sven should be able to post on this list because at least he gives very valuable advices and have a very good knowledge of powerpc hardware (as far as I can understand). If the ban is due to Sven not able to avoid merging his technical posts with some information about his ban and so on ? If so people from the debian-powerpc list should be asked (IMHO) by vote if they want Sven banned or not perhaps before any ban put on him ? xavier PS: sorry for my poor English language level, it gives me some problem to explain what I really think signature.asc Description: Ceci est une partie de message numériquement signée

Unfortunately I got the error that the connection table for ibook is unknown. I have put Option "MacModel" "ibook" in my xorg.conf the error was exactly : (EE) RADEON(0): Invalid ConnectorTable option: ibook Did I miss something ? I have compiled the driver with at least commit 12187a6aa93049c002a4171344d03c713f7f3c5d How can I check that the compiled driver has the ConnectorTable built in ? thanks for your work and thanks in advance for any help -- GALLIEN Matthieu

Hi!

I see that postfix-policyd is missing but I can't agree for dovecot and rsync. Seems to be a quite recent upload for dovecot at least because when I first read your mail and looked I did see the missing dovecot. I am willing to prepare a postfix-plicyd stable rebuild, if it isn't appearing on the security server within the next some hours. >I would like to know who is responsible for the powerpc security > build, and makes sure he/she knows about the problem (and ideally > heard a bit about what happened). That's rather something you'll have to ask the DSA and/or security team and not on a porter's list. :) >For those that don't want to wait for the upgrade, here the > simple procedure: > > sudo apt-get -Vu build-dep rsync > sudo apt-get -Vu source --compile rsync > dpkg -i rsync_2.6.9-2etch1_powerpc.deb Building on your host system might give you a bit more of worries at times, especially if you have installed backports or unofficial packages. I sugguest to build in a clean chroot, like with cowbuilder (cowdancer package) or pbuilder. So long, Rhonda -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

I have a PowerBook G4 with an RV350 [Mobility Radeon 9600 M10] card - propably that will work for a test? Though, I would need a bit more of a guide on how to go on from there: I have xorg 1.3, xrandr 1.2.1 (1.2.2 isn't available yet in the Debian pool, though I might build a local test package if really needed) - just don't know how to go on with the git tree and stuff. :) So, if I can switch you -v in that respect you can count on me help you testing it. Especially since I'm interested in being able to use a dual screen setup. Yes, I know that it should be possible already, but if I help you testing you can help me configuring it, I guess. ;) So long, Rhonda -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
