As you stated earlier, this has been brought up many times already, without much result. Can I cite benh on this matter ? http://lists.debian.org/debian-powerpc/2009/09/msg00104.html > How should the distribution side of this be handled (say, with the > automatic loading of the proper module) with machines that use, say, > tumbler? That's the question.

This a driver for newer hardware, from what I understand. snd-powermac is for older ones (note that "old" may not be what you think: i have an iBook G4 with snd-powermac and a one year younger PowerBook that uses snd-aoa) The problem seems to be just in what machine has what chip, and what driver it should load. Please, if you think I am saying something wrong, correct me. Regards, benjamin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-powerpc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
