Thanks to the help of many on this list, I've sucessfully installed Debian on my 867 Mhz. Powerbook. Installation & basic functionality are no longer issues, as all of the basics are now done with and the basic system is laid out beautifully. So now I'm onto the more advanced stuff (sound, MOL, etc..) I've run into some roadblocks with sound & 3d acceleration, however. Since I've had such good luck with this list before, I thought I'd ask if anybody had any ideas about these two things.
For sound, I created the file /etc/modutils/sound with the following entries: alias char-major-14 soundcore alias sound-slot-0 dmasound_pmac alias char-major-14-3 dmasound_pmac alias /dev/dsp dmasound_pmac alias sound-service-0-0 i2c-keywest alias char-major-14-0 i2c-keywest alias /dev/mixer i2c-keywest Then, I ran 'update-modules' but got the following error: depmod: QM_MODULES: Function not implemented For 3d acceleration, I added 'deb http://people.debian.org/~daenzer/dri-trunk-sid/ ./' to my sources.list, ran 'apt-get install drm-trunk-module-src xserver-xfree86-dri-trunk xlibmesa-gl1-dri-trunk', unpacked drm-trunk.tar.gz, and attempted 'make-kpkg modules-image'. The error I get is: dpkg-gencontrol: error: source paragraph in control info file is missing Source line dh_gencontrol: command returned error code 65280 If anybody knows anything I could try, I'd appreciate it. Thanks for your time. ------------------------------- Brad Lathem Dept. of Mathematics Georgia Institute of Technology Office: Skiles 153
