Actually, the maintainer of a package is wholly responsible for it so he

I'm removing the cross-compiler patches to debian/rules, etc. as

these, I'd rather not have the packages available. As it stands, it takes

Hi all,
Tonight I successfully set up my Airport network under Linux on my
TiBook. I've used Benh's latest tree (today at 2.4.4-pre3), which has
the Airport driver hidden under 'Network devices', 'PCMCIA', 'Wireless',
'Hermes support'. Once I found it, it worked very well so far ;-)

Okay... so I've (supposedly) gotten Debian installed on my iBook, and did the
voodoo with the bootstrap partition (mkofboot --boot /dev/hda9 -m
/target/etc/ofboot.b --root /dev/hda11 --partition 11). When I try to do "boot
hd:9" or "boot hd:9, yaboot", though, I get this message:

Boot floppies have their own version number,

Hello...
I and others I know get similar numbers and have perfect wireless
performance.
Are you aware that the signal and noise numbers are in logarithmic units,
meaning that the signal is more than 1000-fold stronger than the
noise?
