Re: HELP: test kernel patches on the real thing
Sorry to have taken so long to see this thread!
I have a dual processor G5 tower Mac that has the “wind tunnel” problem. I’ll be happy to test your new kernel on it. I keep it (and some other old powerpc Mac hardware) specifically for testing.
What, besides reading the thread at https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2015-April/127557.html, do I need to do to help out?
Thanks for working on this problem!
Rick
