well it's been four months since i've been on linux, going through very
tiring evolution of dual boot osx / ubuntu to single boot debian with a
dash of pure:dyne.

i'll be happy to contribute to the pages when i can. actually right now
compiling a new kernel and i hope things will be better.
unfortunately my noobness sometimes prohibits me from seeing where the
problem is, since i have many at a time, a bit nasty for documenting.

all i've seen is that it's a big mess with people trying lots of things
that go nowhere, so yes, dead end : /

in the mean time, best documentation for linux on mac is on the debian,
ubuntu and gentoo wiki's.
i'll also share my conf if i can make this rt kernel stick, that would
be nice.

best
