Hi all,
This message describes some problems I've ran into while installing a Debian
distr (2.2r3 + update stable) on a new iBook 2001 (P29 aka Marble).
First it seems that the kernel that ships on the CD is a pre 2.2.18 and
won't boot on this machine. So I got a 2.2.18 from Suse (god forbids!) j

That dosen't work for me.

With the 2.2.* kernel only use video=ofonly. With the 2.4 kernel the
other string is no problem.
