Except for my sound problem on my Beige G3/266 Desktop. I can't get sound
unless I boot all the way into the MacOS...
And BTW, I've reverted back to 2.2.21-rc3 with a patch I got from
http://v.favrenicolin.free.fr/linuxppc/linuxppc-tdfx.php3 since I've got a
Voodoo3 card. 2.4.18 was crashing way too much for me, and I even had to deal
with corrupted kdelib3 files for a while! ;-)
