hello... * david howe <david@qednet.biz> [2004-06-03 16:33 +0200]: > > I am looking at the new 1.5g and 1.25ghz model powerbooks and wondering > what issues ppl are having with running linux on them? running at half the frequency, for instance. :) a guy on linuxppc-dev found out how to run with high freq: boot into openfirmware and issue the following commands: dev /cpus/PowerPC,G4@0 set-dfs-high mac-boot then boot normally into linux. you have to do that _every_ time you turn on the machine, though. better wait for benh to implement the aforementioned steps in the kernel. :) also the sound is mute since the device is recognized as AWACS which it is not. you can persuade snd-powermac to use it as SNAPPER which seems to work. just comment out the device_is_compatible clause in sound/ppc/pmac.c:926. these are the two issues i have discovered so far, although i am only the person to set the powerbook up, not the person to use it. :) bye, sebastian -- ::: .O. ::: ..O ::: OOO ::: lynx -source http://www.kodeaffe.de/shensche.pub | gpg --import
