Re: no sound on powerbook G4 with wheezy
Yes, I did it in the first place without success. So it seems there are two bugs in D-I. First snd-powermac should not be included in /etc/modules, second udev should load proper modules as in the case of Powerbook5,8. Maybe different logic boards are to blame? 2011/12/26 Elimar Riesebieter : > * Piotr Kopszak [111226 09:19 +0100]: > >> It seems I have all the modules I need in place: > [...] > I included the following into /etc/modules and it's OK now. >> >> snd_aoa_i2sbus >> snd_aoa_fabric_layout >> snd_aoa_codec_tas > > Well, that shold be done by udev.

Re: no sound on powerbook G4 with wheezy
Sadly, not. There is no /etc/modutils/sound in wheezy and besides udev is supposed to take care of loading proper drivers (why can't I have a choice?!).

OS X unbootable after Squeeze/Sid installation on Powerbook5,6
Dear list, I guess I must have done something utterly stupid, although it escapes me when. I can no longer boot OS X. When I press "x" I see gray apple for a moment but then it is quickly replaced by a slashed circle and all I can do is take out battery and reboot. Before installing Squeeze and upgrading to Sid I had Lenny installed and OS X was booting fine. During installation I did not format the Mac partition and I can still mount it fine. Also I did not touch Apple Partition Map and Apple Bootstrap partitions and I can see they are where they used to be when I do "fdisk /dev/hda". I don't know when I could have screwed things up as I was very careful not to write to any Mac OS partitions during install. I write Squeeze/Sid installation, as I haven't verified if I can boot Mac OS after Squeeze installation (I use it only when I want to use Skype), and later I upgraded Squeeze to Sid (which rendered it unbootable in turn, but let's leave it for now). Right now I would like to find out if it's still possible boot my Mac OS somehow without reinstalling everything from scratch.

XkbLayout ignored in Sid
Indeed, that worked fine. Many thanks! One thing that still doesn't work for me is console font. When I do sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup all is fine, and I have the right font, keyboard mapping and font size, but these settings disappear when I reboot. Strange as it seems that all the settings are saved in /etc/default/console-setup Piotr 2011/5/16 Mandrantosoa 'Ndrianiaina : > hi, > > the keyboard layout are set in /etc/default/keyboard > > mine attached... > > tosoa. > > > -- http://okle.pl -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-powerpc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: loosing wifi connection after upgrading kernel image to 2.6.32-trunk on lenny
Solved almost by accident. The problem was buggy router (Linksys WAG200G) firmware. I have never upgraded firmware since I bought it in 2007. After an uprade all is fine.

Re: keyboard problems in Squeeze
It seems I managed to find a sort of solution or rather a hack. Upgraded to pure sid, purged gnome, installed kde (I guess it's just a superstitious belief in magic in this case) and used kde system configuration panel to add Polish language, Generic 104-key PC keyboard, and Keypad Enter as 3rd level switch. It's not what I want but close enough to right logo key on Powerbook keyboard. Now I got Polish input both in Emacs and in Iceweasel. Proszę bardzo! But I would be grateful if someone send an information to this list once right apple becomes available as fully working third level selector again.

Re: keyboard problems in Squeeze
I am trying to attack the problem following Wolfgang's hints. 1. I got no ~/.xmodmap here. I got xorg.conf but left out the keyboard section. 2. I cannot downgrade xkb-data to 1.5-2 as this version is not available anymore. Besides it would probably be a very short term solution. I don't want to set packages on hold. 3. So I guess, because of 2. the following does not change anything /usr/bin/xmodmap -e "keycode 104 = ISO_Level3_Shift"; \ /usr/bin/xmodmap -e "keycode 134 = Multi_key"; \ /usr/bin/xmodmap -e "keycode 133 = Super_L" I hoped it's only a gnome problem so I purged it and installed kde but the situation is exactly the same. According to http://rhughes.fedorapeople.org/linux-input-model.png the X application can respond to a KeySym, a XKeyCode or Hal's DBUS event. So who is the culprit here? As Polish keyboard in xterm works fine I suspect firefox and emacs are getting only DBUS events and not KeySyms or XKeyCodes. That's just a wild guess. Any idea how to find that out? The only message that can be of use is "s-l is undefined" in emacs. So where it should be defined?

Re: keyboard problems in Squeeze
I think I'm beginning to understand the Squeeze idea of keybord configuration. If I'm right dpkg-reconfigure console-setup should do the trick for both text console and X. But there is still console-data which can also be dpkg-reconfigured? Why? Anyway, how can I prevent both from messing with my keyboard? Piotr 2009/11/8 Piotr Kopszak : > I'm baffled.

wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
allow-hotplug eth0

Don't ask me what it means, but it works here.

Hello list, I have just installed mol and mol-drivers-macosx . Ran "sudo molvconfig" which apparently configured what everything OK. I got OSX X 10.3.9 installed. When I try to run as root "startmol --osx" mol switches to full screen, starts loading darwin kernel but it ends in kernel panic. Any ideas? -- http://okle.pl

I reinstalled lenny from scratch using a fresh snapshot of netinst lenny installer.

I did not report it as I used a vanilla kernel and assumed the failure might have been related to problems with suspending and Xorg. In fact I lost it trying to wake it up after suspend. If indeed it was also a load/unload problem I think it the problem should be described in red in Debian README with suggestions how to avoid it.

Fontforge problem
Hello list, Just tried latest (29-Apr-2008) version of fontforge on lenny-ppc. Unfortunately it repeatedly crashes whenever I try to open Font Properties window. The same does not happen on lenny-i386. Am I doing something wrong or is it a bug? Piotr -- http://okle.pl

Re: keyboard in Etch on powerbook
Dear Wolfgang, Many thanks for your hints, it seems my problems were due to lack of AltGr which is used (almost universally) to obtain ąęćł etc. I found a workaround which is mapping Win Right as a third level selector in Gnome (Preferences->Keyboard) and it works without any other changes. If I may add my 2c, lack of proper input after otherwise extremely smooth installation spoils the whole experience, it would be enough to give user an option to map AltGr during the install warning him/her of the problems they can get into if they don't. Or maybe this is already solved in lenny installer? After all everybody knows Powerbook keyboard layouts and the are not got going to change :) Is this option in xorg.conf doing the same thing? >Option "XkbOptions""lv3:lwin_switch" Piotr -- http://okle.pl
keyboard in Etch on powerbook
Dear list, I have just installed Etch on Powerbook5,6 1.67 but cannot get Polish input in spite of choosing Polish locales as default, There are no problems with Polish fonts. I would be very grateful if you could help me enable Polish keyboard if it is somewhere in Etch or direct me to any additional resources where I could get one.
