Re: X with 2.4 kernel on a 6500

I forgot one important bit: I have a Voodoo 3 installed, and these problems only happen when I use the tdfx driver. No problems with the framebuffer driver, but it insists on running at 800x600 at a very low refresh rate. Thanks much, Arlie Capps

Re: Install a Debian in an E/30

How about a B50? I found a website at http://adequat.c2a.fr/linux/howtos/rs6000, but it does not work. The kernel seems to unzip and it gets to a point that says booting... If anyone has this working and is willing to share any info, that would officially rock. On Monday 18 February 2002 02:46

Install a Debian in an E/30

Dear Sirs, I`m trying to install Debian on a E/30 with IBM processor RS6000, 512MB RAM and 6 HD's of 9GB scsi each. I've downloaded the Potato .iso file, but I can't boot using the CD. Using the floppy disks neither. The disks used were the ones in "prep". I created "boot.bin", "rescue.bin" and

X with 2.4 kernel on a 6500

Hello! I have a strange problem with my 6500/275, with 96MB of RAM and about twice that of swap. I installed Woody and compiled a 2.4.16 kernel (thanks, vinai, Nathan Ingersoll), with the tdfx framebuffer driver. It is booting fine with BootX, and so I installed the X window system. Now it has

Info on rtas and /proc/rtas & /proc/device-tree/rtas

Yesterday I was recompiling my kernel when I read the help dialog about RTAS... It says there that you can set the startup and shutdown time of the computer (the same way that the Energy Settings on Mac OS 9)... I tried to play aroundwith it, but the examples always point to /proc/rtas/whatever,
