Hi I ve a problem with kernel 2.4 (suse ppc 7.1 out of the box) on a power mac G3 beige in fact I can t boot with the kernel 2.4 (only whith 2.2.x) during the boot the screen turn black at a moment (not always a the same moment), it seems to be a video problem. I use the integrated video card (framebuffered), but i've 2 PCI video card too (without any screen connected). do you think i have to remove these cards or to give the kernel some parameters (and which one) help THX

Are you booting Linux with BootX? Maybe you'll succeed playing with the options "Force video settings" and "No video driver".

I once had the same problem, and it disappeared after removal of the unused Video Card. hth, Christian -- Christian Schmidt schmidtc@chemie.uni-hamburg.de
