I've been using testing for a while now on my Apple G4 laptop. I also
use some unstable packages but the apt defaults are set to testing. I
am using GNOME and Sawmill and I do an apt update/upgrade everyday. In
the last month or so I have noticed that GNOME is *really* slow when

I have a 8100/80 powermac which I was running MKLinux
successfully on for a while. After comming across the 2.4
kernels that support the Nubus architecture on sourceforge
(nubus-pmac-sf.net) I tried to install Potato on the same
system. I did a fresh install and everything worked fine.

Well, the problem with upgrading one or two packages is that you run into
dependencies problems: if you upgrade something simple, but it requires a new
version of a library that isn't quite compatible with an older library that
some other non-upgraded software depends on, you've got problems.
Hello!
I've been trying to get Mac-on-Linux running on my PowerBook prismo.
I've compiled the modules, but I can't insert the mol.o module
properly do to unresolved symbols. specifically MUNGE_CONTEXT. Also,
only molsymglue1.o inserts properly. mol.o doesn't insert after I
insert molsymglue1.o
I run stable on my box, but i want one or two packages from testing.
What's the best way to maintain this kind of setup? Currently I use
dselect to get any updates/security releases to packages.
Am I correct in assuming that if I just list testing in my
sources.list the next time i run dselec

Hello everyone.
I was wondering whether there are any catches to using sound cards with the
powerpc (e.g. endian bugs in drivers). I have gotten tired of not being
able to record sound on my powermac 7300, and was thinking that I might be
able to just buy a cheap pci sound card and use that.

Works like a charm,
Thanks Ben,

Has anyone gotten an audio CD to play back under a recent kernel on
the TiBook? cdplay returns 'nodisc', even though I can hear the
DVD-ROM drive begin to spin up, and eject works. Is audio CD playback
just plain broken at the moment? If so, I'll stop worrying about it.

If you haven't created an actual HFS filesystem on that device, you need

This should be

or something, but it's way too large (800kb is the recommended size)
