| 10:40.40 | stocksy | Hi, I'm looking for some help with the firewire interfaces on my B&W G3 Rev1 |
| 10:41.24 | stocksy | I'm trying to use an external HD, but I don't think the firewire controller is being initialised properly: http://www.stocksy.co.uk/tmp/firewire.txt |
| 10:41.43 | stocksy | this is under sarge |

| 11:13.20 | pahartik | stocksy: if you are using Linux 2.6.8 kernel, try (most recent) Linux 2.6.17 kernel... lots of IEEE-1394 -related improvement happened somewhere around Linux 2.6.12 kernel |
| 11:25.07 | stocksy | pahartik: can I use 2.6.17 in sarge or will I need to dist-upgrade? |
| 11:38.18 | dreamind | can some native english speaker do me a favour and read over the pages I've just written on my personal website? ( http://www.dreamind.de/projects/configurations and http://www.dreamind.de/projects/git ) |
| 11:40.47 | pahartik | stocksy: I think at least recent "udev" is needed... since AFAIK, "devfs" is not available anymore on Linux 2.6.17 kernel |
| 11:42.05 | dreamind | devfs is dead, udev is the new king :D |
| 11:43.18 | pahartik | stocksy: and recent "kernel-package" is needed for building recent Linux kernel packages |

| 11:43.42 | stocksy | I think I may have some reading to do then |
| 11:46.21 | stocksy | is it hoplessly naive to use the config-2.6.8-powerpc file to configure a 2.6.17 kernel and expect it to work? |
| 11:47.54 | pahartik | stocksy: it most likely needs lots of manual configuration on top of that |
| 11:51.31 | pahartik | stocksy: are you not used to configure and build Linux kernel? |
| 11:52.21 | stocksy | pahartik: No, I've used debian for years but I've never had to build a linux kernel before |
| 11:57.33 | pahartik | stocksy: you could also try Linux kernel packages provided by Debian... |

| 13:40.41 | xstasi | can you be more specific? |
| 13:40.43 | MelkorD | xstasi: One of the recent versions stops to work |
| 13:40.57 | xstasi | which version of which software? and how? |
| 13:40.57 | xstasi | :D |

| 13:41.43 | xstasi | ibook g4 |
| 13:42.07 | MelkorD | xstasi: Pegasos of required to include initrd inside the kernel |
| 13:42.22 | MelkorD | xstasi: But for PMac should work out of the box |
| 13:42.34 | xstasi | but what? |
| 13:42.43 | xstasi | what software and version are you using? |
| 13:46.50 | MelkorD | xstasi: Take a look at http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_gensplash |
| 13:47.10 | xstasi | i already tried that |
| 13:47.16 | xstasi | but it's.. "stupid" |
| 13:47.26 | xstasi | i didn't get to have a decent bootsplash |
| 13:47.33 | MelkorD | xstasi: I currently used 2.6.17 + splashutils 1.3 + 1.4.13 |
| 13:47.42 | MelkorD | xstasi: And this combo doesnt work at all |
| 13:47.45 | xstasi | like a full-screen image after the bootloader |
| 13:48.04 | xstasi | until the arrival of gdm |
| 13:48.27 | MelkorD | xstasi: Last working version for me was splashutils 1.1.9.10 + klibc 1.2.1 if I remember correctly |
| 13:48.36 | xstasi | splashutils? |
| 13:50.14 | MelkorD | xstasi: Package for splash stuff |
| 13:50.25 | xstasi | ah k |
| 13:50.45 | MelkorD | xstasi: bootsplash is outdated and no longer in development as far I know |
| 13:50.52 | MelkorD | xstasi: Use splashutils |
| 13:50.55 | xstasi | ok |
| 13:51.02 | xstasi | i'll try after lunch, brb |
