I've noticed fuzz, noise, and distortion and inablility to turn off
the internal speaker. AFAIK, having external speakers plugged in
is supposed to disable the internal speaker. This could be a
hardware bug not having anything to do with Linux.

What do you mean here? I have a Radeon 9000pro and it works OK, but
has no DRI or acceleration AFAICT.

I have 768Mb. I didn't notice if it is all not recognized. I will
have to check.

I use the ide-scsi interface to access my CD. In order to get
this to work properly a command argument has to be set on the kernel.
I think it is "hdc=ide-scsi" or something close to that. The correct
settings should be in my dot config, attached.
I can read CDs and Zips fine. My Zip drive is a USB model. The
only thing I can't seem to do is get the CD audio to come through
when playing CDs. I noticed that the G4 hardware does not use the
CD audio cable like the PCs do, so the audio stream must come over
the IDE bus. How do I enable this? Is this part of the tumbler
config?

You are welcome to use one of my config files as a starting point.
I have attached it as a uuencoded file.
The only serious problem I'm still having with the kernel is
the Adaptec 7xxx driver is broken so I can't use a couple of
SCSI devices.

Don't know about this. I used the "trial-and-error" method.
