| 06:01.08 | Mood | hello. anyone have any luck installing linux on ppc g3 old world beige? |

| 06:03.00 | JrHacker | Hmm |
| 06:03.19 | JrHacker | Someone I know has installed it on old world g3, not sure which one |
| 06:03.48 | Mood | is he bald? (i.e. did he rip all his hair out trying to do so?) |
| 06:04.03 | JrHacker | Heh. Don't think so. |
| 06:04.18 | JrHacker | He's not on right now, though |
| 06:04.25 | JrHacker | what issue are you having? |
| 06:05.13 | Mood | i want to know if my display issue is os related -- i first connected the ppc g3 into my LCD and saw something, but mouse wasn't working, so i rebooted. but now the monitor doesn't appear to show anything. it complains about a frequency issue |
| 06:05.26 | Mood | so i was wondering if it was os related, or whether it was hardware related |
| 06:05.35 | JrHacker | hmm, odd. |
| 06:05.46 | JrHacker | I can ask him next time I see him around... old world beige, you said? |
| 06:05.52 | Mood | ya |
| 06:06.00 | Mood | ppc old world beige g3, circa 1998 |
| 06:06.32 | JrHacker | ok |
| 06:06.33 | Mood | looking on the googles, not that much community around that hardware it seems... :-s |
| 06:06.38 | JrHacker | You around much on here? |
| 06:06.53 | Mood | usually in #debian. first time in #debianppc, but i'll stay |
| 06:07.18 | JrHacker | Alright. I'll ask him and get back to you when I do |
| 06:07.22 | JrHacker | should be within a day or so |
| 06:08.17 | Mood | thanks JrHacker. i'll idle in here and stay for the company |
| 06:08.40 | JrHacker | Mood: np. I'm gonna head to bed for the night, though |
| 06:09.07 | Mood | ok. laters JrHacker |
| 17:44.22 | Mood | do i need special consideration/installation/setup in order to have my oldworld ppc g3 beige work with a modern LCD monitor? my monitor complains about out-of-range, and i already reset the nvram to no avail |
| 17:49.46 | pahartik | Mood: Use "fbset" to change frame buffer settings... |
| 17:51.12 | Mood | pahartik: hmm... right now i don't have debian on it though... so i don't think i can do that |
| 17:52.05 | pahartik | Mood: Use CRT monitor to change settings... |
| 17:52.14 | Mood | pahartik: ahh... ok |
| 17:52.48 | Mood | pahartik: should that matter though? LCD vs CRT? |
| 17:54.26 | Mood | not sure i understand why it would matter since they both have vga interface... do they have completely different frequencies? |
| 17:55.48 | pahartik | Mood: That is easy to check... |
