Hi,
I'm trying to install Debian (woody, sid or sarge) on a beige G3 powermac. I
know next to nothing about the hardware and that's leading me into trouble.
So much to learn ... I've been using Linux for almost 11 years, on PCs, Suns,
Cobalts, embedded devices, etc. Now with a Mac in front of

Whoops, my email was addressed to Matthias instead of the list.
Yes, sorry I was unclear about that. The IP was set to 192.168.0.4,
and I was pinging .255 in a fruitless attempt to get a packet out on
the network. I can't get it to send any. But, I just tried something.

Hi,
Well I can't make lmu work.
I have kerenl 2.6.1-ben1 with i2c-dev support and /dev/i2c-0 with mayor
and minor 89,0
When I execute as root lmu then I have this result:
# ./lmu
left sensor:0
right sensor: 0
So, what I am doing wrong?

From my understanding of networking; the IP addresses ending in .0 and
.255 are reserved. The .0 address is the name of the network; while the
.255 address is the broadcast address to than network.
Try setting the local IP to anything but .255

Hi,
i recently discovered the -R switch for lilo on x386, which together
with "panic=30" kernel commandline option allows to recover from a
kernel panic after a remote update.
you can leave the last kernel that's known to be working as default,
then via "lilo -R NewKernelLabel" tell lilo to boot

Hi Alex,
15" PowerBook G4 Aluminium (1.25GHz) here. I had to set the ADAPTER_NUMBER to
4 for it to output any values other than 0 :) Seems the light sensors are
working, but I presume it doesn't (yet) light up the keyboard?
