Sleep not functioning well
Massive rawhide rebuild (nearly 900 packages), against gcc 3.4. Do not upgrade your PPC boxes just yet. Running 2.6.6-1.435, and my sleep on the iBook 2.2 (G3) is super-flaky. Well, it sleeps well, its just waking up that sucks. Problem has boiled down to either waking up the network (eth0/eth1) or loading sound drivers. No joy even with a 2.6.7 kernel from kernels.org. Definitely more debugging to come… as I’m depending on this PPC box for regular daily use for the next entire month.
pmud does not like the “-d” option in /etc/sysconfig/power. It will break during boot. Fedora.us Firefox 0.9 (#1617) builds on PPC just fine.
Building stock kernel.org kernels are very simple these days too. After running make oldconfig, I just make rpm. Install the RPM, run mkinitrd (mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.6.7.img 2.6.7 where 2.6.7 or something must be in /lib/modules), and edit /etc/yaboot.conf to point to the new kernel.
