Hi,
Long-time Debian user. First-time PPC user.
I'm following the Debian installation instructions at
http://www.mathematik.uni-marburg.de/~schmidtm/apple/powerbook.en.php
and when I get into the Debian install screens it cannot
find my hard disk. This is apparently because the old
linux.bin I'
Hi,
So the debian installer detected my new 12" Powerbook's
ATA 100 HD once I downloaded the BK devel kernel from
ppckernel.org here:
http://ppckernel.org/download/bk-2.5-devel-pmac/linux-bk-2.5-devel-pmac-2.6.11-rc4.tar.bz2
and renamed /boot/vmlinux-2.6.11-rc4 to linux.bin and put
it in the de
Hi,
Read about your trackpad driver on debian-powerpc here:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-powerpc/2005/03/msg00984.html
I'm using a 2.6.8 kernel (the default one from debian
Sarge net install 2.6.8-12) and the trackpad driver didn't
compile so well. I suppose I'll try a 2.6.11 kernel next,
but
Hi,
I want to apply Ben's sound patch for new powerbooks. By
looking at the patch I saw that it seemed to be applied
against 2.6.12-rc2 so here's exactly what I did and the
compilation error that resulted:
download 2.6.11.7 from kernel.org and put it in /usr/src
tar -jxf linux-2.6.11.7.tar.bz2
Hi all,
OK, now I am trying to patch the plain vanilla 2.6.11 to
2.6.12-rc2 (and then adding 2.6.12-rc2-mm3 as well.) The
kernel still doesn't compile. I did this:
cd /usr/src
wget
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.11.tar.bz2
tar -jxf linux-2.6.11.tar.bz2
rm linux
ln -s linux-2.

The good news:
The following worked (omitting the 2.6.12-rc2-mm3 patch):
tar xzvf linux-2.6.11.tar.gz
cd linux-2.6.11/
bzip2 -cd ../../patch-2.6.12-rc2.bz2 | patch -p1
cp ../linux-2.6.10/.config .
make oldconfig

PowerBooks don't have SATA drives.
Right. I meant whatever that new ATA controller is. It
