Re: [K-mib-ppc] New iso pre9 - dual usb ibook

pre9 - Dual usb ibook test


Unfortunately on the iBook I get the same results as previous versions. After 
startx the screen goes black, doesn't change at all and won't let me break out 
at all.

I haven't had timeto try your suggestion yet.
Shall I try this with pre9 (or pre8) and see if I get any positive results? 

Could someone explain for linux newbie's exactly how do I "Pass xserver=fbdev 
at boot"?




Yves (and others) Thanks for all of your work on this project.



Cheers,
Thomas Hardly
