I have been playing around with kernel compile configurations for
2.2.18pre21 and I have noticed a sound problem. VI beeps on error
when sound support is complided into the kernel, but not when it
is incorporated as a module. I am assuming sound support for
my PowerMac 7500 involves module dmasoun
I think I need to build a new kernel to use for the install on my
SuperMac C500 (current one doesn't detect my SCSI card or network
card -- I can use the built-in mesh to get around the scsi issue, but
i've got to do an FTP install)
Is it just a matter of building a new kernel and dropping it

IIRC it drops the resource forks. First you need to convert the file to
MacBinary.
It really _is_ all ugly. And I wouldn't worry too much about it. Hav

That's hardly surprising. The search engine has been broken (for $Arch !=
i386) from

Michel, thanks for you kind assistance.
The problem is with the Linux kernel PCI code. It only scans the first
PCI host bridge, but your box has two of those (two 'bandit' bridges).
If you need Linux to access devices on the second bus, have a look at
the PCI patches here:

Hi,

Hi,
I found out hat the problem was when I tried to set up a ppp connection
over a nullmodem cable between a mac and a pc.
The pppd manpage says that the Mac serial ports lack a true RTS
output. And usually, the flow control is rts/cts. Adding cdtrcts to the
pppd options file made the modem work.
