Hi, I was looking for what was going wrong with CD and DVD since the udev update some weeks ago. Nice to find some tips. If I understand correctly, the ide_pmac driver is also deprecated, and I should use the new pata drivers.
Nonetheless for both my mac-mini and my quad-G5, there is a problem. If you can confirm my diagnostic, I will fill a bug against the debian kernel in testing. Mac-mini: 0002:20:0d.0 Unassigned class [ff00]: Apple Computer Inc. UniNorth/Intrepid ATA/100 0002:20:0d.0 ff00: 106b:003b PowerMac G5: 0001:03:0d.0 Unassigned class [ff00]: Apple Computer Inc. Shasta IDE 0001:03:0d.0 ff00: 106b:0050 (don't ask me why the DVD drive is on a PATA bus whereas all the other disks are on SATA interface on this PowerMac) Well, according to http://cateee.net/lkddb/web-lkddb/PATA_MACIO.html the PATA driver for both is drivers/ata/pata_macio.c activated with CONFIG_ATA CONFIG_PATA_MACIO Nonetheless, the configuration file of the kernel says: PowerMac: $ grep PATA_MACIO /boot/config-2.6.39-2-powerpc64 # CONFIG_PATA_MACIO is not set and Mac-mini: $ grep PATA_MACIO /boot/config-2.6.39-2-powerpc # CONFIG_PATA_MACIO is not set So there is currently no way to use cd/dvd out of the box with testing on most PPC Mac, am I right? Thank you for comments (please CC me, I am not subscribed to this bug). Stéphane -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
