Re: [tlug] ibook and linux

[Niels Kobschaetzki <niels.k@example.com>]

Thanks for the help from everybody who helped.
To Baba Yoshiko: The description from you and from the site is quite 
good but in Panther the whole thing works first then correctly when you 
put an .xinitrc in the home-directory.
The output is at my system not that nice but it will work for the 
things i have to do in japanese.

To linux on the ibook g4: very hard thing - i tried it with yellow dog: 
no chance to get the xserver to run with a higher colordepth of 8bit. 
compilation of the cvs always failed and as often as i read the gentoo 
and debian got it to run as often i read that their solution is very 
unstable...
i will wait 'til there is a stable solution for the problem of the 
graphic card. and i become more and more a friend to the unix-part of 
mac os x (the only thing which will not run is the handling of cramfs 
and mounting of filesystems in datas per loopback (but usually you can 
do this with the gui from mac)

greetings
