recording with alsa on tibook
Hello, I could have sworn that sometime ago I read in this mailinglist that the microphone works with alsa on a tibook. Several times I searched the archives, and the web in general, but could not find it again. Was I just fantasizing? Here's what /proc/cpuinfo says: motherboard : PowerBook3,4 MacRISC2 MacRISC Power Macintosh detected as : 73 (PowerBook Titanium III) and I'm using the benh kernals. At the moment 2.4.20-ben8 and alsa 0.9.0rc8d. Actually looking at /proc/asound/ I don't see anything to capture with just playback. Is recording possible at all? Thanks digger
Re: New sleep code for ATI M6, M7 and M9
Yaaahooo! This morning both Myrna (powerbook G4) and I woke up. For Myrna it was the the first good night sleep since I install Linux. So far I've seen none of the degradation over time that I had before the patch. Alsa -- at first it didn't seem to work but then discovered that, fiddling with the volume, it had just muted. Decided I actually prefer that to the possibility of waking up screaming. Below are my particulars Let me join everyone else in thanking you and everyone else involved.

I was hoping to be able to at least do something like record some web-radio. But I guess not. Would also be nice to use the internal mic for some quick and dirty voice.

Maybe I was lucky, but all I had to do was press and hold the alt/option key at bootup. I held it through the initial bong and until I got a blue screen (OF screen?) with icons of my bootable partitions, linux and osx. It was as simple as choosing linux and after it had booted up, running ybin. good luck, digger

Will alsa with the 2.6 kernel work without dmasound and/or allow recording? I would like to believe its true. I (and many others) am using alsa and as far as I can see have only playback available. On the alsa mailing list I've asked if the reason for no recording is due a lack of specs for the sound chip or a lack of desire and time on the developer end. I've yet to get a response. Does anyone here know? For me, its the last thing that keeps my powerbook from being fully functional. digger

I don't recall having to do that much work. Perhaps because I use devfs? Keep in mind I don't burn too many cd's. With a 2.6.2-ben1 kernel I just started xcdroast and scanned for devices and it found the atapi cd-drive. I then booted a 2.4.24-ben1 kernel, started xcdroast, and scanned for devices. It found the "scsi" cd-drive. In neither case did I actually try to burn a cd. I just scanned the empty drive. As far as I can see the only difference is that I have the line, append="hdc=ide-scsi" in yaboot.conf's section for the 2.4 kernel. It seems to happen automagically. digger
Is Audacity working for anyone?
Hello All, Does anyone have audacity working? In particular for me the playback is horribly distorted. I imagine its the endian issue, but I thought that problem had been ironed out and it worked for me in the past. The playback is the same with both 2.4 and 2.6 both using alsa. Along with using the debian unstable pkg I also compiled audacity. Once again distortion. I'd appreciate hearing if it works or doesn't work for anyone. And/or what I might do to get it working. I've asked on the audacity-users list and have gotten no response. Thanks, digger

The features are on the sparse side though. This is probably going over old ground but I did trace it to an endian problem. I decided to compile different versions to see where it fails. Right off the bat the source for 1.0.0 from the audacity site played back with the same "noise". The only difference was a test to set big or little endian. adding that solve the problem. Unfortunately, the next higher version seemed to be completely rewritten and the same simple fix doesn't work. At this point I'm hoping that if I can compile audacity with alsa and jack support it may work. digger

Kernel Oops after wakeup
Hello All, Occasionally I've been have kernel Oops. I've just started to recognize the the signs to look for before it ends in freezing. It tends to happen after sleeping but I'm not sure if it starts there. I'm using a 2.6.3-ben2 kernel but I believe the same thing was happening with the 2.4 kernels. This time one partition ended up pretty corrupted. Once in the past the mac osx side was corrupted to the point it wouldn't boot. Does this look like a hard drive problem? I've included the entire dmesg not sure where it begins to be relevant. Unfortunately I didn't realize I should have ran it through ksymoops before I rebooted to get /proc/kysms, lsmod etc. Is there any other info I can provide?

Also, if the vxpocket modules are loaded first by also with 2.6 it seems to add to the problems. If I stop alsa and restart pcmcia it seems to work. And then, I'm using the testing version of pcmcia-cs. With the unstable version of pcmcia-cs, vxloader doesn't find vxpocket to load the firmware. Don't know how that relates to it.

Where to find libltdl3-dev_1.5.2-1_powerpc.deb?
Hello All, Thinking that the problem with gnucash and libltdl was solved I upgraded them both. The problem is not fixed. Now I'd like to downgrade libltdl3 to 1.5.2-1 but it doesn't exist any more on the repositories. The only platform its available for is hurd. What happened to it? I thought older versions were kept on the sites for awhile? The source doesn't seem to be available either. Other than the usual repositories is there any place I might find it? Thanks digger

Funny thing, I had exactly the same problem last night. On a reinstall I had accidentally installed the mac 0s9 drivers instead of osx. Do you have mol-drivers-macosx installed? Good luck, digger
