I tried to apt-get yaboot from sid, which loaded all depending
packages but yaboot wasn't available for downloading. Broken dependencies?
How to proceed now?

Below is my attempt to implement the Cap Lock fix. It seems to work on
my TiBook (but then again I have only been using my modified kernel
for about 5 minutes...).
Hope this is usefull.

Would it not be a good idea to use: -
#include
and then use uint8_t, uint16_t etc. in one's code.
I think that would make code more portable.
There are lots of other things to consider, but stdint.h would fix the
problem below.

Hi
could someone tell me how the image:

Because I can't mount it as a loop device and I would like to modify
things on it...
thx in advance.
