Fwd: Re: Fw: Woody install docs and Nubus
I tried to install potato on a Mac 8100/80 (Nubus) earlier this year
but failed get floppy access, ppp or X working.
I've just installed ADSL on an ethernet network here which gave me
the ability to apt-get from the net. I've reinstalled potato
(booting from the DebianMkLinux Mach_kernel), upgraded to woody
using apt-get and dselect with some guidance from:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2002/debian-devel-200202/msg01868.html
http://www.debian.org/releases/woody/powerpc/release-notes/ch-upgrading
Starting X gives:
Fatal server error
no screens found
Searching the lists and web revealed no solution and so I've repeated
the potato install and woody upgrade paying special attention to any
X server issues.
The video card drivers listed in the Dialog Box Configuring
Xserver-xfree86 doesn't include the nubus HPV display card V1.0a2 in
my machine. Is there a generic alternative?
TIA
Clive
