 Hi,

If your PB has an Nvidia video card, there is no point in doing this,
since the nv driver has no 3D capabilites whatsoever. IMHO.

 it myself though.
   
   Prep has been relegated to an embedded platform that builds only in
   arch/ppc for now. It should still work there though. We might move it
   over to powerpc one day...
  
  You told me on irc that you broke prep on arch/ppc, did you fix it again ? 
 
 Paulus did afaik

Hey, cool. so ARCH=ppc will work both for apus and prep, and the rest should
go with ARCH=powerpc. This is the case both for 2.6.16 and the upcoming
2.6.17, right ?

So, the basic plan is to have a -prep ARCH=ppc flavour in addition of the
-powerpc one. I will add this over this WE.

That looks like a bug to me. Plenty of other software relies on /dev/adb,
so I'd expect Ben to tell me the device is deprecated before pulling it.

/proc/sys/dev/mac_hid perhaps _is_ deprecated; something in /sys should
replace it.

KDM/KDE Login screwed after dist-upgrade today

2006-05-04 Thread Wolfgang Pfeiffer
Hi All

On tty1 I enter a 
/etc/init.d/kdm start

After getting the KDM/KDElogin screen I type in my password for an
underpriviledged user, try to login with that, the login screen
disappears, the display is getting black, and I'm thrown back at the
same login screen again.

And yes, auth.log says that the login was OK, something like:

.. session opened for user [ .. ]
.. session closed for user [ .. ]


The culprit must be in one of the packages next below, that I upgraded
today. And IIRC this issue happened *only* after that upgrade:

'startx' from some tty ... 

And this

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=365710

says kdm is the culprit: I doubt that, as the packages upgraded today
do not seem to be KDE/KDM packages. Right?

x11-common 1:7.0.16 has a bug (that's been reported about a dozen times,

This happens to me too !

I've just tested the microphone. Now the microphone doesn't work on my

I don't remember when he fixed it precisely but I think 2.6.16 got it
yes.
   
   Do you know if there are SMP PReP machines around ? I think i will do

 The IBM 7043-240 is a dual-cpu system, I think it's PReP?

Re: no mic on ibook g4

2006-05-04 Thread Denis Fernandez Cabrera


I have the same problem, with an iBook G4 of the late 2005. As far as I
could tell, it is not detecting any recording devices (and, prior to
kernel 2.6.15, I had to manually apply a dirty hack to the kernel source
for sound to function properly).

Denís.
