| 00:23.34 | pahartik | simonrvn: It seems I am not in hurry |
| 00:24.03 | simonrvn | heh, i was being facetious =) |
| 00:25.40 | pahartik | simonrvn: Do you know "drivers/hid/hid-input.c" of Linux kernel? |
| 00:26.58 | simonrvn | has to do with usb sub-system, stuff like kbd and mouse, that's all i know. judging from the name, i'd say has to do with processing input from those devices. |
| 00:29.29 | pahartik | simonrvn: Yes... Except it is not USB only, it is also used by other HID devices... AFAIK |
| 00:30.42 | simonrvn | possibly, dunno for sure. i've only seen it for used for usb. |

| 13:59.55 | WolvBite | morning all. I cannot for the life of me get my mac g5 to boot my debian installation. can anyone help me out |
| 14:01.28 | docelic | hey.. where do you run into the problem? |
| 14:07.31 | pahartik | WolvBite: I notice that you were on channel ~16 hours ago but then disappeared |
| 14:10.41 | WolvBite | yes.. i went ahead and dl'ed the debian lenny xfce ppc cd. thought that might fix it |
| 14:13.24 | WolvBite | pahartik. can you help in getting me to boot debian |
| 14:15.52 | pahartik | WolvBite: Was that CD image from Debian archive mirror? |
| 14:16.09 | WolvBite | yes |
| 14:16.25 | pahartik | WolvBite: Did you use POWER4 kernel? What happened? |
| 14:16.49 | WolvBite | didn't have a power4 kernel |
| 14:17.15 | WolvBite | is that the seret? install with a power4 kernel |
| 14:18.05 | WolvBite | i dl'ed the testing iso for ppc lenny xfce |
| 14:19.01 | pahartik | WolvBite: But can you describe what happened? |
| 14:19.40 | WolvBite | after booting from cd, typed in install64 |
| 14:20.18 | WolvBite | went through the entire install process. install finished and yaboot booted the g5 |
| 14:20.48 | pahartik | WolvBite: "install64" probably refers to POWER4 kernel... |
| 14:21.00 | WolvBite | but when selecting l, i get flashing folder and then back to yaboot menu |
| 14:23.10 | WolvBite | so i guessed my yaboot.conf wasn't correct. I'm currently working on trying to change that |
| 14:24.19 | pahartik | WolvBite: Install succeeded but you have some problem with boot loader... |
| 14:26.31 | WolvBite | it looks that way.. there were no errors during the install |
| 14:32.09 | pahartik | WolvBite: Try to point boot loader on CD directly to kernel and root filesystem on harddisk... I am not familiar with device-tree of "G5 workstations"... |
| 14:33.33 | WolvBite | ok. i know the device tree name.. so i'll try that on a reboot of install cd |
| 14:45.14 | WolvBite | ok if I point the boot cd to boot from sd1 i get the loading kernel...... then sd1:2,/vmlinux: unkown or corrupt filesystem |
| 15:30.56 | pahartik | WolvBite: Then it cannot find kernel... I remember using something like "dev / ls" in OpenFirmware... |
