I can't seem to rsync the benh kernel from penguinppc since I "upgraded"
to the unstable dist. No matter what I do, I get an unknown host.
When I use dig, host, or nslookup, I see the host. I can also rsync the
benh tree from my PCs running slackware.
Is anyone else having this problem? My curr

The other day, I apt-get upgraded my system to whatever was available at
the time. One of the things messages I got during the install was that I
needed to recompile my kernel to change the way it does keyboard mapping.

I've never been quite clear on what kernel I should use. There seem to be
kernels on mvista.com, which I gues are considered the "official" powerpc
kernel. Then there are the benh kernels which I used to use but don't
anymore because I no longer know where the definitive source can be found.

My 1st-gen titanium powerbook used to sleep fine until I rsynced up to
2.4.15-pre4-benh. Now it crashes while asleep. If I leave it asleep
overnight, it will be dead in the morning about every third night. This

My airport card works fine also, but that's irrelevant because the

Here's another slight problem I'm having since upgrading to 2.4.16-ben0

dvd drive (dd if=/dev/hdc of=/dev/null), the mouse moves randomly and
the pmu reports spurious dead battery conditions. During the dd, use of

Another thing that's tweaking me about 2.4.16-ben0 is that the clock
gets set 1 month ahead on boot. In OF, the system time is correct.
When I boot, the system time is Sun, 2 Dec 2002 02:00. Off by a month.
