powerbook G4 12'' not working with k3b?

Hello everybody, does anybody have k3b working with matshita dw-8123? The 
strange thing is that the driver is found under "Reading devices" and its 
capabilities are described as capable of writing CD/rw but not CD's (??)

Hi,
How can I configure the theme for gtkpbbuttons. When I am under gnome or kdm, 
and I change the brightness, no image comes. But when I make it under my kde 
session, it always come with the classic style. If I try this: 
#gtkpbbuttons -t Crystal &
It comes then both image, Classic and Crystal. Not that I want in fact ;-)

Thanks for the help

Netatalk over a wireless router?

2004-12-10 Thread Jacob S
Hello list,

I had netatalk between my Linux file server and a Mac OS X client
working great when everything was going through an ethernet switch (all
CAT5, etc.). However, now that we upgrade to a mixed network using both
wired and wireless, the client is not able to talk to the server any
more.

The server is still on the wired switch and the client is now on the
wireless router. The router and switch are connected using the uplink
port on the switch. This works great for sharing the internet
connection, nfs from a Linux client and even samba from the Mac OS X
client. But mounting fileshares or printing via netatalk no longer work.

The file server is running Debian Sarge and the wireless router is a
Netgear WGR614. Does anyone have some suggestions of what might cause
this? 

TIA,
Jacob



604e machines with faster RAM buses ?

2004-12-10 Thread vinai
Hey folks,

I have a project that I'd like to work on (debian, PPC based PVR) and I
wanted to try to use a motherboard with 604e CPUs (computational + power
efficiency) and a faster memory bus (because of video data) in macs with
this CPU (typically 50 MHz).

I seem to remember some boards made by motorola (the MTX line I believe)
with a pair of 604e CPUs, and a 100 MHz memory bus.  But I can't find it
anywhere for sale over the 'net (so far).  So I was wondering about the
604e-based IBM workstations.  They relatively inexpensive, but what bus
speeds do these typically have between CPU and memory ?

cheers
vinai

I don't know if it's deprecated, I can only say that hwclock
seems to do the same work (here in mac newworld).

"fblevel off; fblevel on" also did the trick for me. Although it may
have changed, I didn't get this bug since sleep patches.

Sounds like the same PLL locking problems I had occasionally. Try
snoozing/waking again, that usually fixes it for me.

Sorry Ben for my bad english. After a long sleep, the resume is well, but the 
next resume, the screen look like this:  there is horizontal lines on the 
screen under X and under tty1-tty6 too. This lines move up and down, the

I hope I was able to help you understanding me.

/dev link loop

2004-12-10 Thread Arne Caspari

Hi list,

I have an issue which is propably a misconfiguration of my udev config.

The device files /dev/dsp and /dev/mixer as well as device files for 
some other drivers link back to themself after the module got loaded. If 
I delete the file and do a "mknod" myself, the drivers are accessible 
but on the next boot the files are symbolic links to themselfes again.


Any ideas?

Thanks,
/Arne

Or lmud ... you may need to mknod the proper /dev/i2c- device, or set
up devfsd/udev to manage the device (see #273015).

You only need i2c-dev i2c-keywest and a recent pbbuttons.

Re: "Can't locate module radeon" error as I seem to be missingradeon.o ?

2004-12-10 Thread Michael Lake

Hi all

Solved my problem. My disk was full + I had an error in an .initrc file. 
It took me a while to realise that root could run X but not me and that 
led me to the solution. The bit about X complaing it could not locate 
the radeon driver led me astray for a full day !
