Hi there
Im really happy to have gotten a powerbook g4, was a PC user before.
And lenny works great. No installation issues. Good work!
Maybe I should add that I encryted the whole system with the installer.
1. I havent worked on getting the wireless to go. Any Links to HOWTOs are
welcome.
2. Does anybody have a working xorg.conf for a powerbook g4 with ati 9700
(rv350)?
I cant enable Desktop effects on kde 4.2.2 :( If I enable effects the xserver
freezes and so I cant even get into the console by alt-ctrl-f1. Turning the
computer off is the only solution.
Direct Rendering worked out of the box, but I dont really know how to get
compositing to work.
I also have a problem with the colours in kde. Some blue colours like the
default K-Menu-symbol is some kind of orange :)
I just changed the driver to radeon in xorg.conf yet. Oh, and I set UseFBdev
to false after having a problem with weird fonts in tty1 when i stopped gdm.
$ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf

3. Is it possible to scroll or right click without an external mouse on the
touchpad?
Im thankful for every comment or links on this and the wireless installation.
