Re: Power Management et. al.

You're saying it goes to sleep for you automatically when you close the lid (i.e. not by typing snooze -f in X)? Yes, I'm running pmud 0.7 (using the deb from unstable) If so, what did you have to change in /etc/power/pwrctl (or elsewhere)? Comment out all the stuff in the Core99 function.

Re: Power Management et. al.

> So far, so good. Closing it makes it sleep. [...] Does anyone know if there is support for this for the tibook? This works fine on my TiBook as long as I am in X when I put it to sleep. Sleep on the TiBook was failing in console a while back, I don't know if BenH has fixed it yet. Anyway

Re:

In the meantime, I've been scratching my head wondering how I can manage to install Debian on my NewWorld iMac 350, unless I get a CD. I was sort of avoiding buying a CD because I wanted to learn more about how the whole thing goes together as I install. This guy describes an install on a TiBook

Re: Keyboard converter - ADB to AT or PS/2

I found one once, but it was $100+ and since these are all oldworld machines, I'm looking for something cheap. I already have the converters to use the monitors, but I need something to convert adb --> (AT,PS/2). The only unit I have ever run across that does this was an adapter made by Silico

Re: TiBook X issues

sorry this won't work, yaboot has no such option `video=' so the kernel never sees this. the correct way is: Interesting... I certainly believe you, since you would know. There are number of sample yaboot configs floating around in the mailing list archives with video=foo, obviously misinfo

Re: pmud / harddisk / kernel problem

Another interesting thing about the current implementation of sleep on the TiPB is that I noticed that the LCD screen is still on (i.e. I can see windows) even though the backlight goes off and the sleep light comes on. BTW, I did confirm that it works for me under X, as has been everybody els

TiBook X keyboard & battery question

I've made it to the point that my TiBook is successfully running X. I don't know if I'm using the graphics hardware to its best advantage (in fact I suspect not since the gnome logout fade takes about 3 seconds to grey out the screen) but it works for now. But on the plus side I haven't had to

After playing around with my now triple booting (debian/osx/classic) PBG4 for a couple hours, and discovering that a) osx was slow b) airport was broken c) classic was broken I reinstalled OSX formatting the partition to HFS+, instead of UFS as it had bit. OSX runs about twice as fast now, airpo
