I think the 9500 is like my s900 in that it relies on a PCI card for video. I
also think that the original poster said he was using an IMS TwinTurbo 4MB card.
I have success with my machine by setting the OF ouput-device to

Hi,
I've got a tibook G4 running sid and benh's latest kernels. I've
loaded the dmasound_pmac module and it seems to be OK. However I have
lots of troubles making it work. For instance, when KDE starts, it
complains:

The reason for placing the bootstrap partition first is that it will then
be booted by default. This way when MacOS mucks with your firmware, you
can simply reset it with cmd-opt-p-r to restore yaboot to defaul

Not strictly, but Ethan considers it a good idea, so that if your XPRAM

partition first.

hello,
do i really have to put the bootstrap partition before the first mac-os
partition?
i followed the "famous" instruction
http://www.xiph.org/~jack/ibook/instnotes.html
and have a bootstrap partition after my mac-os partitions. it works for
booting via open firmware (boot hd:11,\\yaboot).

OK. I'll check the archives. Thanks

Thanks for the reply. I will check out the archives. However, this
is a NEW install of POTATO, and it most assuredly is biting me.
Does that change the diagnosis?

Hi,
I believed it is possible to compile a binary for both powerpc (in fact Mac
performa 6400) and RS6000 (7248 43P, which is PReP) since I used the same
Debian cd to install on both. But I compiled a program under the Mac and I can't
run it on the RS6000.
Can I achieve that? What option(s) shoul

OK, The system is sending noise over the
