| 17:12.38 | bikerr | ookey, of-framebuffer gone in 3.13? |
| 18:13.25 | bikerr | insanity, no gfx, no terminal, no keyboard . i've not been this frustrated in my 15 years of linux |
| 18:16.52 | pahartik | bikerr: Yes, it is problem that drivers are changed to new like KMS and Wayland, with too much focus on "x86" |
| 18:18.21 | bikerr | it's been going that way for a few years, i just didnt think it'd get _this_ bad |
| 18:20.39 | bikerr | 3.13 gets stuck probing the display too ;\ i get those nasty white bleeding colours and X cant start before i'ts timed out |
| 18:21.10 | pahartik | bikerr: My main workstation is "Apple iMac G4" with "NVIDIA Corporation NV18 [GeForce4 MX with AGP8X (Mac)]" |
| 18:21.34 | bikerr | that's nice, so the nivida drivers work then? |
| 18:22.06 | pahartik | bikerr: After being stuck with deprecated "nv" driver, "Nouveau" eventually started working at some level |
| 18:23.28 | bikerr | hm , so at the current state of things, we'd be lucky to see ati support by kernel 4 and mesa 20 ... |
| 18:23.47 | pahartik | bikerr: Not crashing or hanging with current software, but some things do not work... |
| 18:24.15 | bikerr | squeeze atleast tried to work . |
| 18:24.22 | bikerr | i see some success in modesetting now |
| 18:24.34 | bikerr | but that doesnt help much since i have no keyboard input ; \ |

| 18:28.24 | pahartik | bikerr: Back when "Apple iBook G4" was my main workstation, "Radeon" driver worked better than this "Nouveau" does now |
| 18:29.30 | bikerr | sad state, really... |
| 18:29.39 | bikerr | the kernel and all runs so damned well on ppc |
| 18:34.21 | pahartik | bikerr: Lack of interest somehow reflects availability of PowerPC workstations since Apple Computer stopped selling them |
| 19:08.03 | bikerr | yeh , preserving working solutions should have been a priority though... |
| 19:10.03 | bikerr | would be nice to atleast have one functional up to date OS , degrading to squeeze might be a solution , but id rather try to find some middle ground on something remotely current |
