Hi, A little tip : If you boot the powerbook *closed*, with an external crt connected and on, you can use the external screen. With some tests before, but it works. Next time, I'll test this with a videoprojector (that's what I need in fact...). Regards, -- revp onpuneq

ppc64 port

Hi! Just a simple query... I _may_ have a chance to get a ppc64 machine. Is anyone interested in such a port? I know that it basically works with the 32 bit binaries, but the installation is non trivial right now and having no 64 bit code isn't optimal, too. Thanks, Cajus

I seem to be having issues with compiling a 2.6 kernel on my Umax "SuperMac" S900 (essentially a PowerMac 9600 clone). I'm able to compile a kernel without difficulties as long as I do not configure for Mac floppy drive support. If I include the Mac floppy drive support, the kernel compile aborts.
