I just installed SL 10.1 on my dual-boot G3 iBook. Unfortunately, I did not deselect the bootloader installation and thus YaST turned my iBook in a single-boot Linux system. Previously, I booted with the Open Firmware, by default it booted Linux and I could also press space to boot Mac OS. What must I do to configure the iBook that way again? -- Karl Eichwalder R&D / Documentation SUSE Linux Products GmbH Key fingerprint = B2A3 AF2F CFC8 40B1 67EA 475A 5903 A21B 06EB 882E

Append this to lilo.conf, where hda9 is the OSX partition: other=/dev/hda9 label=macos

Very nice, thanks a million. All in all, it works quite nice. Two or three other issues. Starting Gnome, it complains about "Permissions on the file /dev/pmu are broken". And the second thing is, it skips ypbind and autofs in runlevel 5, but NIS and automounting my home works nevertheless. Third, after a short period of running X (without using any application), the case is quite hot. Maybe, beagled is guilty ;) Will it start the fan if necessary? Happily, I now can close the lid to put it asleep. -- Karl Eichwalder R&D / Documentation SUSE Linux Products GmbH Key fingerprint = B2A3 AF2F CFC8 40B1 67EA 475A 5903 A21B 06EB 882E

The user is likely not in group video. /etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev-default.rules:34:KERNEL=="pmu", GROUP="video"

top and ps fax will tell you what processes are running. The fan should probably start.
