Hi Rick,
Unfortunately, all three of my Powermac G5 Quad's require the LCS to be
rebuilt.
Until i find the spare time to rebuild the LCS, i wont be building
kernels anytime soon.
I doubt that Debian PPC arch would make an official kernel package
specifically for the PMAC 11.2.
Either way, as

Hi Peter,
It looks like events have caught up with us. There’s now a 4.5.0 kernel in
Debian testing and strong hints that the kernel in Stretch, when it’s released,
will be based on 4.6. So your reconfigured 4.5.0-rc2 kernel is getting
out-of-date.

never received much of a response from him..

The dmesg log might be helpful as well.

Sorry for the delay in following up with this. I got a chance to try the

Hi Logan,
On the positive, you do not seem to be having any more EDID issues once you

But this line seems a worry:

Logan,
I believe that there is a 4.4.0 rc7 kernel up on that same page. I have a
single core 1.8ghz, and that kernel did the trick for me. The 3.18 version
had the same networking problems for me.
Hope I could be of help!

Hi Logan,
Not sure if you have intentionally disabled MSI interrupts for nouveau,

Hi Logan,
The kernel version is quite old (3.16.7). Perhaps you can try something
newer. Nouveau continually has improvements practically with each newer
kernel version.
Perhaps something to consider, try the easy way out and use a

Can you paste an example of the yaboot config so I can see that too? What
kernel version should I try building for my best chance of this working? Is

Brock,
It's Jessie 8.2. I looked at yaboot.conf and just changed the vmlinux and
initrd.img symlinks to point to my newly installed kernel in /boot. This
part is working because upon reboot a uname -r reveals my new kernel is
running.

Would you be able to post the full dmesg log? Might help track this one
down a bit quicker. I'm assuming you installed a version of Jessie (8.0 -
8.2)?
You updated your yaboot.conf to boot from the new kernel (or you are
specifying it from boot yaboot menu at startup)?
Thanks,
