No I haven't done this yet. But I did this with my desktop PC
and therefore I'm familiar with the problems you might come across.

That are the right preconditions. However if your graphic chip doesn't
support AA you're lost. Do 'xdpyinfo' in an xterm and see whether there
is RENDER among the list of extensions.
The next pitfall is that qt might not be compiled with the -xft option.
I don't know how to check this, but try 'ldd libqt.so' and see whether
it lists libXft then I guess everything is enabled. But I might be wrong
on this one.
Are you using KDE? In newer version (>= 2.1) the ControlCenter has an
option to
enable AA. You also could try to enable AA by defining the environment
variable
'export QT_XFT=1'.
HTH,

Hi !
Ich habe hier einen interessanten Effekt, wenn ich Lyx starte:
"sigill in main_arena() form /lib/libc.so.6"
Es wurde allso eine illegale Operation ausgeführt. Möglicherweise ist
die C-Library etwas
falsch übersetzt ??
Hat jemand eine Lösung ?
Mein System:
PPC G3 (Apple IBook)
PPC-Suse 7.1
Danke !

Hi,
Compiling 2.4.6-4 PPC kernel with settings made with cloneconfig from
k_defit-2.4.6-4 is almost OK but here are some depmod problems:

Hi,
Attention SuSE Linux PPC 7.0 and 7.1 users!
1) LILO PPC (from SuSE Linux PPC 7.0 and 7.1) overwrites all
corresponding items each time you run lilo command in terminal, including
yaboot. Thus, if you load Linux kernel from ReiserFS partition your
ReiserFS-enabled yaboot will be replaced with older version. The solution
is to replace old yaboot which belongs to LILO PPC package (located in
/boot directory) with ReiserFS enabled yaboot 1.2.1 or later.
2) Also, LILO PPC from SuSE Linux PPC 7.0 and 7.1 assumes Linux as
default OS. Thus, to boot MacOS, you need to press space key. This is not
convenient if MacOS is your primary workspace environment. Solution: just
swap these statements in os-chooser script and save backup copy, since
LILO PPC overwrite it next time you run lilo command.
Boots MacOS:
" Booting MacOS ..." cr " boot hd:xx,\\:tbxi" eval
Boots Linux:
" screen" output
" Booting Yaboot ..." cr " boot hd:yy,\\yaboot" eval
PS. Olaf, please update LILO. For many newbies this is so not obvious.

Hi all,
I've got ppp working using kppp now but am still having trouble with
dual booting.
It seems that I can get either os-chooser to be tbxi or yaboot to be
tbxi but not both at the same time (is this what's supposed to
happen?).
If I make my boot partition the start up disk with os-chooser being
tbxi then I get a flashing question mark..
If I do the same except with yaboot being tbxi then I get a boot:
prompt but if I type "linux", or anything else for that matter, it
just returns to a new line and gives me the boot: prompt again.
I followed the manual's instructions carefully:-
1) put suseboot on my boot (HFS) partition.
2) made that partition the startup disk.
3) booted into linux from cd1
4) edited (as root) lilo.conf - then ran lilo (I double checked I had
set the correct address for the boot partition, this seemed to work
perfectly)
5) rebooted and got a flashing question mark...
this my os-chooser boot script:-
<BOOT-SCRIPT>
" get-key-map" " keyboard" open-dev $call-method
dup 20 dump
5 + c@ 08 = if
" Booting MacOS ..." cr " boot hd:5,\\:tbxi" eval
else
" Booting Yaboot ..." cr " boot ultra1:8,\\yaboot" eval
then
</BOOT-SCRIPT>
and this is my yaboot.conf :-
timeout = 100
default = linux
image = ultra1:10,/boot/vmlinux
label = linux
root = /dev/hdb10
append = "load_ramdisk=1 "
Here's my partition tables (at least the relevant partitions) as I
understand them to be:-
MacOs /dev/hda5
boot /dev/hdb8
root /dev/hdb10
swap /dev/hdb9
I'm using a blue & white G3 with MacOs 8.6
Should I be using bootx? is that even possible on a ppc? any help
with this would be much appreciated .

Hi,
I have found anther yaboot 1.2.1 (ReiserFS enabled) glitch related to
loading kernel from ReiserFS partition (2.4.2, 2.4.7pre3). My boot
unexpectedly stopped working (I have no idea why), reconfiguration with
LILO PPC without "copy" option did not helped either... Even reformatting
Linux HFS boot partition and complete fresh re-install of all items had
no effect.
Loading kernel, please wait...
Image not found...
Default catch code = 300
SRR0 00000000
SRR1 00083030
SOLUTION: I had to copy kernel to HFS boot partition (may be also done
with LILO PPC "copy" option), and after that everything went fine.
Configuration: iBook Indigo, SuSE 7.1, single Linux ReiserFS partition,
ReiserFS enabled yaboot 1.2.1, SuSE kernel 2.4.2 and 2.4.7pre3.

Hi, Olaf,
I have copied linux kernel and system map to HFS boot, and now I have
been able to boot with sacrifice of stability: 1 out of 3 start-ups
locked up with garbled screen. It seems HFS code are quite buggy. I am
sure Linux will not work stable because time to time it have to load
certain portions of kernel using those buggy HFS routines.
Anyway, I would like to restore my previous way of booting with kernel on
reiserfs /boot partiton. I did everything, even completely reformatted
hfs boot partition, nothing helped.

In my case yaboot just presented a white screen, so I have erased ext2.

I do not have ext2 partitions at all, just single reiserfs.

OK, but how to reset all OF variables?

hi,
I've installed the kernel 2.4.6 from benh using the rpm from the SuSE
ftp site in order to finally get sleep and sound to work on my G3
Powerbook (Pismo, Firewire, 400 MHz). Everything went fine, but when I
try to boot with the new kernel it will give me the following error:
kernel BUG at slab.c: 1062 !
...then it simply stops the boot process - only resetting and booting
with the 2.2.18 kernel that came with SuSE 7.1 brings me back into Linux
again.
Has anyone an idea what's going wrong or where I can get a proper kernel
binary (including modules, sys map,....) that will work on the Pismo ???
Thanks,
Peter
