I switched from Wheezy to testing, which didn't change anything - still no sound or wireless. I then took a chance last night, and switched to unstable. That resulted in a kernel upgrade that has fixed the wireless issue! So in summary, manually loading the i2c_powermac module fixed the fans running at full blast and the latest kernel in unstable solves the problem with BCM4318 wireless (may have been a Broadcom specific issue as Realtek wireless, albeit on USB, was working under Wheezy and testing). That just leaves the sound issue. Any advice on that would be most appreciated. Cheers, Chris -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-powerpc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
