i am trying to get debian running on a 7500 powerpc
but the boot floppies can't find my Quantum Fireball 1
gig hard drive. I am using the woody version. i can
boot to macos on the hard drive. (actually disk tools

Hello,
this question may be asked and answered before, but I did not find
something in the threads.
I just managed installing Sarge on my OldWorld Mac Powerbook G3
"Wallstreet".
Still having some problems, I wonder how to adjust brightness and (more
important) the contrast of the display.

Well, I made a friend install Debian a few month ago with no problem at
all.
Unstable is in a too bad shape now for a fresh install. I'd suggest
installing from sarge then wait for the gcc transition to be over.
Frankly, packages in sarge are recent enough.

Does someone manage to have working the keyboards backlight ? I dont,
but I dont know if it's ok or not. Well, there is a part in the config
file that makes me think pbbutton can manage that. But it's not working
here.
