I have a sweet 2.4.10 I've built with XFS support. It's
Hmmm, I really should have read that "Kernel" thread *before* I sent

Afternoon one and all. I sucked down the source for kernel 2.4.4 from
Sid last night, played with the settings via "make xconfig" then happily
ran make-kpkg until it hit this:

You are in luck :)
I know a URL that steps you through this (I have it working on a Beige
G3 - not much help). When I'm in the office tomorrow I'll forward the
PowerBook URL to you. It's quite good.
If you want to play while you wait, use:
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86
to reconfigure XF86Con
Actually, there are. We use one at work. Although it can scan linux
files for virii, as mentioned by another respondant, there are no virii.
What we use it for is scanning our SMB shares that are used by "Windows"
clients as a file store, for windows virii.

colour and >= 1024x768 would you be able to drop me a copy of your
XF86config-4 file?
I'll be buggered if I can get any decent colour / res combo that
makes it useable.

Hi, I'm having a problem getting X 4 to run in the correct modes (or at
all in some instances) and have had trouble finding some useful
information to get me past this. Is someone able to point me towards
soem useful doco or perhaps has an XF86Config-4 that I could peruse?

John, here are some links that may prove useful for you:

Although this site is talking about LinuxPPC (which I also do not recommend -
from experience) their documentation
Eric, you may have mentioned this earlier and I may have missed it but how are
you getting into X? Are you running "startx" (or "XFree86"), "xdm" or "gdm"? It
sounds to me like you aren't using GNOME session management and your answer to
the previous question will help qualify that.

Toumas, not having really used the Evolution address book (I'm back to using

Phil, I think your message may be referrencing my messages about getting
Evolution running. I didn't make any package changes (I wouldn't even know how)
I merely installed evolution, libxml1 and bonobo (from Sid) to get Evolution
functioning. It still does not perform as "stable" as my i386 lapt
Upgrading Bonobo did the trick nicely - everything works well except importing
my old mail and gnome-card. Looks like I may finally be pushed to put more RAM
in
the old beige work horse (either that or teach my wife to use Mutt!).

A bit of scrounging though Google and this appears to be due to one of my

which one. Any ideas people?

I had a bit of trouble with Evolution. Anyone have quick pointers on the
following:
oafd: error while loading shared libraries: oafd: undefined symbol:

This is the result of running evolu
Great news. Thanks for your efforts and I'll keep an eye out :)

Trawling the archives the last comment I saw on Mac-on-Linux packages was a
