About the "sed -i" thing, this is to keep coherency with other parts of the installer, as frans suggested.


Ok.


I guess it's also simpler asking a tester to uncomment a single line instead of adding a line by hand, which could lead to typos and unreliable test results, when debugging the g-i. I really hope this is enough to make g-i work on all those machines where a success was reported after tweaking properly directfbrc.


I strongly suggest you to upload a version of the packages including those
changes, and then do a call for tester on debian-powerpc.

Of especial interest would be testers with nvidia graphic cards, since we
don't yet have feedback for those.

As soon as this patch gets committed and new PPC ISOs are available, a new round of tests on PPCs would be possible and desirable. I really hope we'll be able to release a decent g-i for PPCs.. by the way, do we have testers for AMD64 too?

cheers

Attilio
