I agree. My previous patch was mostly intended to show what needed to be turned off for powerpc. I'd somehow got it in my head that it was the maintianer that had asked for help on -powerpc, and so completely missed that the package was orphaned. Because of that, I thought that the maintainer would be better suited to fixing it to only affect ppc. Here's an alternate patch for debian/config.fb. I've used it to do builds on powerpc and i386. With this version vgaplan4.o isn't built on powerpc, but is on i386 (and should be on other architectures). --- debian/config.fb.dist Mon Jan 7 00:41:12 2002 +++ debian/config.fb Mon Jan 7 00:42:37 2002 @@ -39,6 +39,8 @@ POWERPCTOOLSPREFIX = powerpc-linux- RTEMSTOOLSPREFIX = i386-rtemself- +DEBARCH=$(shell dpkg-architecture -qDEB_BUILD_ARCH) + #################################################################### # # Compiling options @@ -204,7 +206,11 @@ # framebuffer screen driver (linear and/or vga 4 planes) # set VTSWITCH to include virtual terminal switch code FRAMEBUFFER = Y +ifeq ($(DEBARCH), powerpc) +FBVGA = N +else FBVGA = Y +endif VTSWITCH = Y PORTRAIT_MODE = N -- Aaron Schrab [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.execpc.com/~aarons/ The only difference between a car salesman and a computer salesman is that the car salesman knows he's lying.
