-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Just a quick introduction, and sharing of good news.
I upgraded my PPC64 mac (iMac G5) to 2.6.27 today, I had huge issues getting a kernel I liked (Couldn't really justify bloating it to just `make it work' on a gentoo machine..) to run on the machine (unfamiliar hardware). Anyway, .26 was released, I had issues with it on my x64 machines, but decided to give it a burl on my mac. 2 days of messing with the config and I got nowhere, gave up and stuck with .24 Today, portage pulled the .27 sources in and I though `What the hell'. make oldconfig, answer the questions sensibly, build, install; by now I've forgotten the OF command to boot a different kernel, so I cross my fingers, symlink /boot/vmlinux to my shiny new .27 kernel and reboot. EVERYTHING works, flawlessly, nothing needed tuning, nothing needed tweaking, it all just went. AFAIK I have not had any obvious gains either, ie can't do anything I couldn't do before (at least not anything I know of), but I felt I'd share my joy, and ask if anyone else had had the same issues in the past, or successes in the much more recent past! Kind regards, I look forward to conversing with you all.
