This is cool -- what I really need to get working now is the XVideo

I tried that. I made a nice large NFS partition. I am not happy with
it. The filesystem has to many limitations (others are better
qualified to list these). My problem was that HFS paths have to be
rather short... I am not sure the exact number of characters; not
enough for reasonably named ogg's
Also, make sure to press the 'fn' key after you press 'Control-Alt'
(but while still holding them down), and then your F? key.
Holding down the 'fn' key before hitting the Control or Alt keys, will
result in a different key code... Usually not the right one for a
console switch.

This is no longer necessary as of ker
So. I have figured out that I can't read HFS+ partitions, does anyone
think it's a good idea to create a large HFS partition for mp3's, oggs,
etc?
I currently am using an NFS server on the lan, but that doesn't help when
your on the road.
Cheers.

All I have been able to do is crash the X server... Of course, the

Hi,
I have installed Potato on a IBM RS/6000 B50.
I've upgraded to kernel 2.4.8, and am able to boot the system from
floppy.
It just won't boot from hd.
My partitions are like this:
/dev/sda1 PReP-boot 4M
/dev/sda2 /boot 8M
/dev/sda3 / 2G
/dev/sda5 swap

The Frame Buffer Device could not work correctly on a Powerbook 1400. That's
not possible because it uses a special graphic chip whic

Hmm, the framebuffer server will not start. He always fails with the Error:

Hi,
i have given up on configuring XFree86 4.1 for my Radeon. I downloaded
the drivers posted by Ani Joshi. They work except that i cannot switch
from graphical interface to text console.
So i was curious if anyone knew if there are fixes out yet, or what i
would have to do to fix the problem.

I got the default framebuffer server included with debian to run by changing
the default color depth. If I recall correctly I had to turn it up to 16 or
more.
