| 10:48.21 | shikamaru | hello there |
| 10:48.42 | shikamaru | just got an issue with the last update could you confirm it? |
| 10:48.58 | shikamaru | udev can't be installed because the kernel is missing some mandatory options |
| 10:49.10 | shikamaru | do you know if there are workarounds ? |
| 10:50.04 | shikamaru | I'm running a 64 bits kernel with a 32 bit userland in testing with a powermac 7.3 |

| 19:25.23 | de_fault | i bought an old imac g3 (probably original one, not a revision model, i don't exactly now since the owner haven't delivered it to me yet) and i want to use it as my common lisp environment, but i don't know which combination to use, i guess it may not be able to run mac os x, and as far as i know recently maintained common lisp implementations doesn't support versions of mac os before os x, so i guess i'll install a ppc linux version and use one of th |
| 19:26.17 | de_fault | or simply, does anyone have experience on running linux on g3? |
| 19:31.07 | pahartik | de_fault: Using Debian GNU/Linux on early iMac workstation is mostly good idea... |
| 19:33.11 | de_fault | pahartik: do you know its performance on g3? should i directly install a gnome desktop or would just a window manager like openbox be a better idea? |
| 19:34.36 | pahartik | de_fault: Something simple like "flwm" is recommended... |
| 19:37.01 | de_fault | pahartik: is debian's version that works on imac officially maintained? |
| 19:37.23 | de_fault | i mean is debian ppc directly a debian project |
| 19:38.16 | pahartik | de_fault: Debian GNU/Linux is available for ~10 architectures... |
| 19:39.51 | de_fault | so debian ppc is among these 10 which is recently maintened ( i mean not an abandoned debian port), right? |
| 19:41.01 | de_fault | hmm, powerpc is among the links in the getting debian page |
| 19:41.17 | de_fault | so it seems it is recently maintaned |
| 19:44.08 | de_fault | last question, does this powerpc installation strongly support imac g3, where can i find installation instructions? |
| 19:54.32 | pahartik | de_fault: I do not know if brightness control of built-in display is supported at all by Linux kernel... |
| 19:56.19 | pahartik | de_fault: Otherwise, should work fairly well... |
