I have a Pismo that was running more-or-less vanilla testing, and I added
Bastien's Ximian packages to my apt sources.
Now it boots, gets as far as the Ximian login dialogue, and then the
keyboard stops working. I can't log in, and because the keyboard is not
working, I can't kill the X server or

That message you refer to was probably from me, just playing the part of
a concerned citizen. I have no pretensions to moderating anything.
yaboot may sound extreme, but it's the way. it's not that hard tho. all

I have sound working on my Pismo, but not completely. That is, I can get
sound through the sound-out socket, but not through the speakers.
Playthrough from the CD does not work either (although a few posts back

I have a pismo and a Palm V, and naturally, I'd like them to talk
through Linux rather than MacOS.
I tried plugging the cradle in to an USB port (I have an adapter that
works fine through MacOS 9). I can see this in dmesg:
USB new device connect, assigned device number 1
but there is no
I note that the powerpc mutt package is 1.1.2, while the i386 one is 1.2.
How do I find out who maintains the powerpc package (eg if I want to help

I installed jikes so I could do some Java hacking.
jikes complains that it cannot find stuff:

Yesterday I added "unstable" to my apt.sources and did an upgrade.
Now I get a kernel panic, dropping into a debugger on boot.
This only happens with Paul M's 2.2.15pre19 kernel - it does not happen
with the older 2.2.15.pre14 kernel.
It seems to be setserial that's the problem, removing this pa

I'm using Netscape 4.7 at the moment for browsing and mail - I found
Mozilla too unstable. To be honest, I'm thinking about switching to mutt

Problem: I have no sound at all, at least, no volume, anyway.
I'm using the latest 2.2.15pre19 kernel from Paul McKerras.
I see this message at boot:
DMA sound driver installed, using 4 buffers of 32k.
cat /dev/sndstat yields:
