| 00:22.58 | Pons | guys, is there any way of mounting a XFS partition that has debian-ppc on a x86 linux |
| 00:23.21 | Pons | because when i do "mount /dev/sdb4 /media" it says "can't read superblock" |

| 02:12.38 | Gnuman | Does anyone know why the G4 in a Mini would be so easily pegged out in sid, with a hand rolled kernel? |
| 02:12.54 | Gnuman | just about anything I do pegs the processor |
| 02:13.36 | Gnuman | file transfers fer crissake! |
| 02:17.31 | Gnuman | OK, this is interesting. . . |
| 02:18.22 | Gnuman | the system monitor graph on teh panel says CPU is at 100%. . . but when I open the larger version (a window) it says 40% |
| 02:18.50 | Gnuman | Now, i am using Gnome. . . |
| 02:19.09 | Gnuman | trying to give it a fair chance. . . |
| 02:42.05 | pahartik | Gnuman: Is that 100% observed during file transfer? |
| 02:47.03 | Gnuman | yes, on the panel |
| 02:47.22 | Gnuman | but it shows about 40% in teh window graph |
| 02:49.04 | Gnuman | FlightGear (which calls for 800Mhz or better processor) won't get over 1fps. . . |
| 02:49.09 | pahartik | Gnuman: Is file transfer somehow too slow then? |
| 02:49.34 | Gnuman | over FW400? |
| 02:50.00 | Gnuman | file transfewr should not peg teh CPU. . . |
| 02:50.23 | Gnuman | takes a half hour to build the kernel. . . |
| 02:50.40 | Gnuman | that should peg th3e CPU. . . |
| 02:52.48 | pahartik | Gnuman: 30 minutes to build kernel package sounds normal with fairly fast CPU |
| 02:55.15 | Gnuman | Yeah, teh kernel build I'm not unhappy with. . . |
| 02:55.52 | Gnuman | but X is not happy with anything requiring fast graphics. . . |
| 02:57.23 | Gnuman | and a Radeon 9200 should give me better than that. . . |
| 02:59.02 | pahartik | Gnuman: Lack of information about frame buffer hardware details is widely known |
| 02:59.56 | Gnuman | ?? |
| 03:00.15 | Gnuman | so the radeon driver in teh kernel is buggy? |
| 03:00.30 | Gnuman | does ATI have a better one available? |
| 03:00.55 | Gnuman | with Fb I get good video. |
| 03:01.09 | Gnuman | when I turn it off, teh video goes blank |
| 03:01.41 | pahartik | Gnuman: Most likely ATI has not provided enough information (suitable for GPL) to X11 server developers |
| 03:01.48 | Gnuman | Oh, teh kernel is 2.6.22 |
| 03:02.15 | Gnuman | but do they roll thier own driver for ppc Linux? |
| 03:03.10 | pahartik | Gnuman: Proprietary binary driver? Hopefully not... |
| 03:03.25 | Gnuman | nVidia does. . . |
| 03:07.37 | Gnuman | Only for x86 in Linux |
