Hi!
Lowering the severity as this affects powerpc and ppc64 only [1],
so no release architectures. On the other hand, I have uploaded
pmac-utils to unreleased for powerpc and ppc64.
On the other hand, it looks like that the package seems orphaned,
so I will try to ado
Given that the iMac G3 has a CRT monitor like the eMac G4, I believe it
is likely that the issues regarding the video drivers of two machines
are similar.
I could be wrong, but it could be worthy to take a look at what other
people is doing to support the eMac G4 again [1] and maybe try it on

I was told that the kernel is why it doesn’t work 100%... that it needs User
Space Modesetting and thus needs an older kernel like 2.6, 3.13 or 4.4.0-187 to
work properly at all with the Rage128. I’d hate to say it but I’ve lost faith
in Debian/Ubuntu. I will be giving Adelie Linux a shot becaus
Sorry, my mistake; Debian 7 and Debian SID ofpathnames match, I was
looking at ofpath.
