Re: 2.6.12 debian powerpc kernels and ppc64 ...
I have successfully tested the kernel sven64 on my PowerMac G5, the
cpuinfo is at the bottom.
The kernel boots up, but after system initialization fan also starts
full speed (even after the X init). The syslog does not says anything
about the fans stuff. Dont really know what is the module related to its
control and what tests should I do to check cpu temp. Also the frame
buffer started in a very low resolution and the charset of the console
was not the desired (but those are minor problems). The syslog file of
the kernel init stage is as follows
