Is there a precompiled kernel that I can use for this purpose (making sound work on my G4, on which I've just installed woody new-powermac)? I'm not particularly up for learning how to build a custom one just yet. Also, can someone point me to instructions on replacing the one I've got now wit

keyboard problems with macally ikey

I use a macally ikey keyboard, and I've noticed two problems. a) The LEDs are wacky. they start off all un-lit, but when I enable num-lock, they all turn on. Disabling num-lock doesn't turn any of them off, but when caps-lock is enabled, the num-lock LED turns off. When I disable caps-lock,

Recommended kernel? (current one crashes)

I'm using a 2.4.16-newpmac kernel on a Titanium (this was the latest proposed kernel when the Debian distribution was installed on my machine). I wanted to compile Mozilla (I tried twice), but twice, the machine completely froze during the compilation. I suppose that there is a bug in the kernel.
