Re: iMac G5 Bugs and new wiki

Hi Michel,

We've discovered the problem lies with the kernel configuration: the standard Debian 2.6.18 kernel Switches Users fine. Our custom kernels however, do not.

Unfortunately, I'm not sure what exactly isn't configured properly. My kernel is essentially a standard g5_defconfig, plus firewall support. I've attached the config file, and would be most interested if anyone can spot the problem.

There's probably an issue with starting the second X server. At least
the full X config and log files are required for diagnosing this.
