Re: kernel package for ibook2
Well.. installing devfsd allows your kernel package to boot up but
my us english keymap becomes unusable. Well not unusable just extremely
dificult :-)
I will try and configure benh's kernel tree and see if I can build a
working kernel and working xconfig from there.
I get an error with the dri module in my X config when I build my own.
Sooner or later I will get this to run X
Any tips.
Thanks very much for help so far
