About configuring a Powermac G4/ downloaded kernel problems
HI there.
Recently I've installed woody 3.0r0 in my powermacG4.
I have everithing ok, but the Nvidia Geforce 2 is not supported.
I have kernel 2.4.18-newpowerpc working (if the patch newppc is applied automatically by dselect over 2.4.18 image which comes with Debian 3.0) ¿Does I need anewer kernel? ¿Where I can get information about compilig the kernel and appliying patches???
HOw can I run XFree86? Do I need a different kernel?
Do I need a source or a kernel image? Where I can get more information?
Where I can get newer kernels? Does someone work correctly?
Nowadays I run linux in console-mode, it's enough to do almost everithing , but the more you have, the more you want...
-----------------------------------------------
I've tested two:
linux-bk-2.4.20-sta-pre6.tar.gz This kernel has a problem whith my keyboard model (it doesn't works properly and I can't do anything)
linux-debian-2.4.20-sta-pre6.tar.gz With 4.18 configuration, It doesn't works due to missing files in the modules folder provided.
the two kernels are precompiled, where can I get the sources?
thanks for your help. Good bless Linux.
