Hi there,
I try to get sound working on my Powerbook G3 (400 MHz, Firewire) Pismo
running SuSE Linux 7.1 but the only thing I get is the message (see
below) at boot time (copied from /var/log/boot.msg) !
I used kernel 2.4.6-benh from the SuSE ftp server first without any
difference. Following the instructions given on the SuSE support data
base doesn't solve the problem either, my Powerbook still doesn't make a
sound...
...any ideas ??
Thanks,
Peter

I need to install linux on a IBM RS6k 43P-140,
unfortunately I can't find a ready-made "zimage" that my 140 can boot up
from.
I saw some patches (243-140) on the IBM site that supposed to fix this 140
problem.
It says "...Apply these against the 2.4.3 kernels from the official PowerPC
kernel
source trees from fsmlabs.com"
http://oss.software.ibm.com/developer/opensource/linux/projects/ppc/43p_140n
otes.php
Can anybody advise if this is what I should do:
1) Copy source trees from fsmlabs.com into a RS6k B50 running suse-ppc 7.0
2) Apply the 243-140 patch onto the source tree.
3) somehow compile the above together on the B50. A new zimage is produced.
4) dd the zimage into a floppy, and use it to boot the 43P-140.
I've never compiled kernel before, so pls provide pointers on how to do
this.
thanks,
azman
Hello,
I'm running SuSE 7.1/PPC on kernel 2.4.8-benh (this happened with older
kernels, too), and when I boot linux, the time is always way off (often even
the minutes are wrong, not just the hour). So I fix the time in Linux, and
everything is fine. But when I go back to MacOS, the clock is wrong again.
Anybody else have this problem? Know how to stop it?
Thanks.

Hi!
I am running SuSE 7.1 on my G4 PowerBook. When I try to set compiler
options within kdevelop 1.3 the following error is printed:
checking for Qt... configure: error: Qt (>= 1.42 and < 2.0) (libraries)
not found. Please check your installation!
What can I do?
Thanks,
MH
Hallo zusammen,
hat jemand eine Idee, wie ich den Scsi Scanner am original Scsi Anschluß zum laufen bekomme? Beim Booten wird der Scanner gemeldet, beim Einrichten auch (/dev/sg2). Leider meldet mir xsane "No device found {o.ä}". Beim zweiten Aufruf von xsane dann "device busy".

Still problems with CDwriter delivered with iMac (transparent blue casing bought in march).
This iMac is thus equipped with an ide CDwriter (unfortunately not SCSI)
I have thus to emulate the CDwriter as a SCSI driver in order to be able to use cdrecord.
I follow the same procedures as at home with a PC and a ide CDwriter:
1) in /etc/lilo.config:
have line append = "hdb=ide-scsi" (then type instruction lilo)
2) in /etc/modules:
have line alias scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi
3) add line /dev/scd0 /cdrom auto ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0
Everything goes fine
I reboot
instruction mount /cdrom : OK cd is mounted
I type "eject": error: unable to eject, last error: input/output error
I read the man of eject:
I type eject scd0: OK it ejects
Now I can try to burn a CD
Mkisofs: OK no problem to make an image and to mount it with mount -t iso9660 -o ro,loop=/dev/loop0 etc...
I test cdrecord -scanbus: SCSI device is 0,0,0
I try now cdrecord -v -eject speed=4 dev=0,0,0 dir/image.iso and....
.... my dear SuSE 7.1 on iMac "crashes" no error messages, no explanation, just crashes: only solution: hard stop.
Anybody can give me an idea how to burn a CD on an iMac?

I am having difficulty booting 7.1 PPC on a G4, with a separate hard drive
for Mac OS9.1 and the SuSE Linux.
Does anyone have the text for the OS bootable script? My partition for the
Linux Root is "/dev/hda8"
Thank you.
Hello,
i tryed to install 7.1 on my new mac (single 867mhz, GeForce2 MX,
cinema-display) I tryed different vmlinux-versions and ramdisks (starting
from my linuxBoot-directory(standard-hfs)) but it is not working. Did
somebody installed it on a adc-display?
Greetings,
Andreas Berg
Small problem
At home I use without problem an ide cdwriter on a PC to burn CD
I just have to emulate it as a scsi drive
On the iMac, I apply the same configuration
in /etc/lilo.conf
change line:
append="hdb=ide-scsi" (I checked, drive is well hdb)
then type "lilo" to fix thr config
in /etc/modules.conf:
change
alias scsi_hostadapter off
to
alias scsi_hostadapter ide-scsi
Everything goes fine. If I type cdrecord -scanbus the cdwriter is detected as scsi drive.
I change /etc/fstab -> I can mount the drive
Though, I have a BIG problem, if I want to eject the CD I get an error message (input/output error or something like that) and the CD does not get out.
Has somebody solved the problem?
