I also tried the various debian-powerpc mirrors first; but
it seemed impossible to resolve all dependencies and get
it installed (on powerpc woody).

hej,
I have got a CD lying around that is reportedly burned for
MAC; so I tried to mount it as follows:
mount -t hfs /dev/cdrom /mnt/
I then got a fancy kernel error message:

Hello Simon,

more recent BUS designs (speak: PCI at least) allow
irq-sharing, ie. multiple devicing sharing one IRQ line.
so it's perfectly okay.
(... as long as it works :)

that setup looks similar to the one I've got at home; however,
I'm using a PCMCIA cisco aironet 350 card on debian-x86
as base station.

Hallo Michael,

seems so.
the bootlog shows something like
"PMU ... 2400/3400/3500(G3)",
and IIRC from docu read a long time ago, it's the same :)

Hej,
(this is more a problem description than a question
and might be relevant mostly for pmud and pcmcia
maintainers)
I'm running debian stable using a 2.2.19 kernel using
the pcmcia-cs 3.1.22-0.2potato (should be most recent)
on a powerbook 2400c, pmud 0.7-3, and a PCMCIA
ne2000 clone (abocom

quite the same thing that my PM 7300 is doing at

the problem you have is that you're using a kernel

Hej,
I'm having debian 2.2r3 installed on a powerbook 2400c,
featuring a lot of applications like gimp and xfig...
however, it's quite a mess to use these applications
since they heavily depend on three-button-mice configurations.
The solution of having the 2nd and 3rd button emulated
by keyboard
hej,
Okay. This might also be relevant for the benchmark speed compare
thread we had earlier (is my celeron faster than my G3?
[hint: there's more in the computer than the casse and the processor])
