Depends on the kernel version; PCI resource fixup for the Mach64 is needed

The machine arrived on Friday. Turns out it has 192MB of RAM, not 256. Oh
darn. :)
It's sawing through a compile of XFree86 4.0.1Z right now. I'll let

I'd like to publicly thank the donor, M Carling.

Hi,
what is the device file where I may find the mouse on an iMac (DV).

Hi,
I am finding it difficult to create the new /dev/input for my
PowerBook Lombard. I am compiling the latest pmac-stable tree
from ppc.samba.org::linux-pmac-stable. The Mac-device-drivers
section mentions Use input layer for ADB keyboard and mouse
but it does not say how to create them.
Hi,
I've just installed potato on a Mac 9500, and it's all (more or less)
OK except for the mouse. This is a Logitech USB mouse attached to an
Entrega PCI card. The combination worked fine under LinuxPPC and YDL,
btw. The puzzling part is that _occasionally_ the mouse will move for

I've been annoyed for the longest time that Caps_Lock and Control_L

Have these keys been hardcoded?
BenH explained this before, I think he said it was a hardware problem (the
Caps-Lock key not sending a keycode when it goes back up, or something like
that), that would also explain why you can't switch these 2 keys. Is there a

for that ?

In addition to the rest of the replies, I would have to add my two cents by
saying that in general, Starmaxes rule. The one in question has a 200 MHz
