[kernel howto :)]
Now you can install the kernel (vmlinux) as replacement of the old kernel. Don't forget to change links on the kernel if you use some.
yes, I know how to build a new kernel, but I'm affraid it won't help here: the file I'm looking for it the one to setup on the suseboot partition, and which I call under OF with boot hd:10,install It doesn't seem to be a kernel file (at least I tried to replace it with a vmlinuz file, and the boot failed). I'll make some more tries...
- no XFree yet: sax fails, and using the XF86Config file from http://cfa-www.harvard.edu/~tkurosu/SuSE-v71-PPC-install.log doesn't help
It's a very old version on 7.1. Take the Update to XFree86 4.1.0 from the ftp-server from SuSE.
Ok, could be tried... Thanks for the advice.
Some other little but very annoying things: - how can I set the notebook to sleep/suspend mode ? (no apm command found)
Use pmud, it's not part of SuSE Linux 7.1 and it dosen't work very well on my notebook.
it doesn't work very well ? :) I hope that's a typo :) Will also be tried.
So, I hope it situation will be better under 7.3 (could somebody from Suse confirm?). Any input welcome :-)
If you understand german, take a look on my homepage, I've written down, what I've done to be happy with my PowerBook. It's a G3 Wallstreet II, but maybe this can help you with your G4:
Danke, sieht interessant aus. But The PB G3 are "supported" by Suse, not the G4's, so there are more problems... (usuall problem with new hardware...)
