Hi all, I recently installed Debian/PowerPC in my PowerMac 8500/120 and it works fine with potato system.
So I tried to run sid also and it works too but I encountered two problems. First, Xfree 4.0(xserver-xfree8 4.0.3-3 etc.) seems not to work correctly. I used fbdev but it displaied something like in reverse video(?) when I did startx. (X works fine on potato system) Next, when I tried to compile kernel 2.2.4 in sid environment, it failed as gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.4/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototyp\ es -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -D__powerpc__ -fsigned-char -m\ soft-float -pipe -ffixed-r2 -Wno-uninitialized -mmultiple -mstring -DEXPORT_\ SYMTAB -c ppc_ksyms.c ppc_ksyms.c:335: `down_read_failed' undeclared here (not in a function) ppc_ksyms.c:335: initializer element is not constant ppc_ksyms.c:335: (near initialization for `__ksymtab_down_read_failed.value') ppc_ksyms.c:336: `down_write_failed' undeclared here (not in a function) ppc_ksyms.c:336: initializer element is not constant ppc_ksyms.c:336: (near initialization for `__ksymtab_down_write_failed.value') make[2]: *** [ppc_ksyms.o] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.4/arch/ppc/kernel' make[1]: *** [_dir_arch/ppc/kernel] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.4' I am afraid these might be already reported but I can not find the solutions anywhere. Does anyone knows what are problems and how one can fix problems?
