On 6.10.2005, Charles Trois stated: Joseph Jezak a écrit : If Mackael's suggestion doesn't help, let's try with nvidiafb and a newer kernel: It did not help, causing a kernel panic that I couldn't resolve. Give 2.6.14 a try (there are some release canidates for vanilla sources), apply this patch: http://ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2005-October/019957.html and then try nvidiafb. I have downloaded linux-2.6.14-rc3, but was unable to apply the patch: I put it within /linux and wrote patch --verbose -p1 Patch_nvidiafb Is that not correct? It failed on 5 hunks out of 5. That looks right, but did you clean out the directory beforehand? I ask because the same thing happened to me. Everything worked when I ran make clean in /usr/src/linux before patching. Unfortunately, the patch didn't help, and the kernels i compiled won't boot any more than those compiled with the unpatched 2.6.14-rc3 do. -- Guy Yasko -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- gentoo-ppc-user@gentoo.org mailing list

I followed your advice, but it did not help: the problem remains. I take the liberty to attach a copy of my .config file, in the hope that you will be able to detect what's wrong.

you need to enable support for IDE/ATA controller from apple under Device Drivers- ATA. there should be options based on Macintosh or Apple: IDE/ATA Disk support IDE/ATA Driver Mac Partition Support nick On Oct 2, 2005, at 11:45 AM, Charles Trois wrote: Mickael Royer a écrit : I see you have CONFIG_FB_NVIDIA=y in your .config file.

I have done what you say, and there is a little progress; I now have this error message: VFS: Cannot open root device hda15 or unknown-block(0,0) Please append a correct root= boot option Kernel panic - not syncing:VFS:unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) Rebooting in 180 seconds I don't see what that means. root=/dev/hda15 is already written in /etc/yaboot.conf.
