Got some most useful work completed – got Yellow Dog 3.0 completely installed on the iBook G4. The X config basically got easily solved via using the fbdev<\/tt> driver, rather than the radeon<\/tt> module. Disabling the HorizSync and VertRefresh meant that X runs at a full 1024×768 – Anaconda didn’t detect the 14″ screen appropriately and the values gave 640×480 resolution. This is to be updated to Fedora Rawhide when bandwidth permits.<\/p>\n
Fedora Core 2 test1 has gotten onto potter<\/tt>, which was my last FC1 box, tracking updates-testing. The upgrade took a good three thours! On other notes, something interesting on kernel 2.4.22 showed up when I ran free:
