Hi,
Entering 'uname -p' should return 'ppc' but returns 'unknow' running
2.4.8-powerpc with debian/woody.
The uname --version returns >uname (GNU sh-utils) 2.0.11
Any clues on what could be wrong?

Hi,
Must be a classic, although I stfw and can't find any explanation for this.
Every time I have been wanting to install a non-free package (unzip, zip,
etc...) I had to revert back my /etc/apt/sources.list to stable vs. testing
to be able to access these packages. Is it intended to be that way?

in terms of HTML pages, they are fine. In terms of file downloads, dead in

Thanks for your pointer.
I will send them an email regarding packaging. I also found out that the

I am not sure if we can draw any conclusions from individual and isolated

I stfw'ed without much success looking for the .deb packages of the

Although I found on the blackdown mirrors all the debian packages for the

My experience while using hfs volumes under Linux has been mediocre at best.
Mounting ro is ok, but writing files to it is asking for trouble.
If you really have to write to hfs partition, then you should make some hfs

Hi,
I tried compiling the latest kernel (2.4.9) in order to use linux keycodes
(which seems to be required as I updated XF86 from 4.0 to 4.1.)
During the kernel build, the compiler stopped with an error:
drivers/char/vt.c:507: 'kdb_rate' undeclared.

Josh,
I still don't understand why the kernel package installed from a pre-built
image package returns either a -ppc on 2.2 either a -powerpc on 2.4 added to
the OS version since the platform is already returned using the uname -m
command.

Hi,
I noticed that after installing either 2.2, either 2.4 pre-built kernel
binary package, I end up getting a kernel version with an appended string
(either -pmac, either -powerpc.) If I write a driver for this installed
kernel, should I change the version in the header version.h by appending the
