Hello list, I've tried to install Debian in my powerbook box but when I'm going to configure the boot section, I don't get to make that yaboot works well. Have I update the yaboot file? Any little hack that gets me to make ybin and configure that and I could run MacOSX and Debian? My linux parti

I've got a tibook 667 DVI, the latest X stuff seems to "work" as far as sleeping goes. The trick is, you must disable DRI, which isn't a big deal for me right now, I'll give up 3D accel so my machine doesn't crash when somebody closes the lid. :) I know this isn't the final solution, but at leas

You did not read the instructions well enough :( It says, on the christophe/titanium page, that you need to apt-get install libncurses5-dev before running make menuconfig Well, i did install this, and just to make sure I did it again, but after typing: make menuconfig I still get: make

If make menuconfig doesn't work, you perhaps forgot to install libncurses-dev. apt-get install libncurses-dev should help you. Eric Böse-Wolf -- Bitte senden Sie mir keine Word- oder PowerPoint-Anhänge. Siehe http://www.fsf.org/philosophy/no-word-attachments.de.html Peitsch mich, schlag mich,

If your iBook is the one with an ATI M7 chip, the additional energy consumption is easily explained by the fact that the chip is not powered down when the laptop is put to sleep. It looks like full sleep (the screen is powered down) but it is not. That's better than the TiBook situation with the s
