Not sure if I asked an answered question, or if I was asking a can of worms question, or if I didn't supply enough information, or if no one really knows, or if no one really cares, or if some other possibility occurred, but I'd take even just a quick link or couple of words as traction in a start to solving this problem. > I've got a G3 Powerbook Pismo with a problem > similar to this post: > > http://lists.debian.org/debian-powerpc/2003/04/msg00609.html > > Wifi card lights go off, can't type anything, > mouse usually still works, audio cuts, and > sometimes X crashes.

VLC video playage halts, but sometimes I'm able to continue viewing pics w/ GQView. > Etch, and now Lenny 2.6.8-powerpc Can I upgrade to sid and just hope for the best? Will upgrading my kernel to something greater offer a chance of escaping this three minute halt every four or five minutes? It's a serious damper and I had previously thought the Pismos were simply and obviously the best laptop in the world - bar none. I still want to believe.

I could recite the floating point message in my dreams, but I'd rather offer the angels the latest buzz on the most tremendous, slightly scary, complete and well-intentioned operating system in the world - Debian. > Thanks a lot -- a whole lot! May I request a just a hyperlink? (I've got to send this mail or I just might lose it in a freeze and X crash.)
