It certainly doesn't like the fact my binaries are stripped. Here's
what I could come up with:
You need to recompile it with FEATURES=nostrip and possibly
USE=debug. Don't forget to remove -fomit-frame-pointer from
C{,XX}FLAGS, in case you have it. Depending on where the crash happens,
you may have to recompile not only KDE, but also other packages from
KDE's dependencies.

However, even the genkerneled kernel can't seem to detect my hard drive! This time I was allowed to drop to a shell and the only hd* was hda, my cdrom. Can you please post the kernel output, which you gather using netconsole, on an http server? I guess your kernel is missing some option, but I'm not sure which. Did you only check /dev/hd* or also what dmesg said? The thing that's killing me is that the gentoo boot cd is obviously able to do it, and I even copied the config from that cd over as per the genkernel instructions, still to no avail. You copied the actually running config from /proc/config.gz? Greets, Michael -- Gentoo Linux developer, http://hansmi.ch/, http://forkbomb.ch/ pgpKoPuFHS7d8.pgp Description: PGP signature

Re: [gentoo-ppc-user] Audio installation

Also, I'd like to use a kernel with the Ingo Molnar realtime preemption patch. I don't know that specific patch, but preemption on PowerPC isn't what you actually want. It causes programs to crash because of a corrupted cache. It used to work when one enabled SMP, but I'm not sure wether this is still the case.

Maybe, maybe not. It's not what I asked for. Read the output of grep machine /proc/cpuinfo. There you'll find something like PowerBook7,2 (the numbers are the important ones). I'm asking because on some models the sound is not yet supported. But there's a driver in development (snd-aoa, [1]). Is there a way to run audio apps safely on a PPC processor using Linux? I'm sure there is. You have always the source code at hand and can modify it to make it better. Anyway, what would you suggest I do to get stable audio on a PPC? Unfortunately, I don't have much expierience with professional audio on any platform. Sound output works on my G5 and one of my PowerBooks while another one doesn't have its sound chip supported yet (but will with snd-aoa). Digital output is said not to work for now, but it's planned to be included in snd-aoa once they figure it out. Oh, and please learn how to quote. First and last warning from me.

Re: [gentoo-ppc-user] Kernel panic booting minimal iso on dual G5
Hello I just picked up a dual G5 (the 2.7 GHz flavor) and I'm interested in running gentoo on it as well as OS X. I've been using x86 and x86_gentoo for quite some time now (back since 1.2). However the ppc64 minimal iso from the mirrors gives a kernel panic during bootup on this hardware, with the call stack indicating a driver probe of some sort. I think that the 2.7 GHz machines need a newer kernel. You might want to look into the ChangeLog of linux-2.6.12-rc5, I know that there are fixes for exactly those machines in it. You can then build such kernel and netboot it. If you can't build one, you can ask in #gentoo-ppc64 on Freenode.
