Sorry to step in this thread, but I am interested in having those
power management capabilities on my Pismo too. I use LinuxPPC 2000
(2.2.15pre19)

Where can I get the RPMS or tar files.

Thanks in advance,

is the Pismo media bay or iBook CDROM at hdc?
The DVD-ROM in my Pismo is hde.
So is mine.

OK, so, I got the source, applied the patch I found, and built it. Well, I
tried to... it failed because pmu.h redeclared something that was in some
system header of the same name... I commented out the thing in pmu.h
(something about PMU_TYPE) and it compiled... but I was worried, because the
thing I commented out had a comment saying /* iBook */ and I happen to be
using an iBook SE. But, anything to get it to compile, right? It appears to
report battery status correctly. I'm using the latest rsync kernel. But when
I try to put the machine to sleep, it starts saying "hda: lost interrupt"
and becomes unusable. Also, it should be noted that the iBook's CD-ROM *is*
hdc (I seem to remember that being a question earlier). Any ideas?

Later,
Robbie Thompson

That's OK, I had to do the same when building with 2.2.15 kernel headers.
Debian ships with 2.2.10 (at least the pre-release version I installed had
2.2.10 headers) so I left it that way. Stephan apparently didn't compile
pmud with 2.2.15 headers either. If it was a simple #define we could work
around it, but it defines an additional element in the PMU version enum
and I don't know how to test for that (short of mucking with configure
tricks, of course). Just ignore it for now.

If the Debian powerpc release kernel is 2.2.15 I'll take care of that in
the Debian package. What you got was Stephan's LinuxPPC package, I can't
update that one, obviously.

CC: to Stephan (no idea if he's on the list), please contact him for
further questions.

It probably will be. The boot-floppies I used to install it on my Pismo
contained 2.2.15pre20, and they want an 'officially' released kernel for the
potato release.

Thanks for the heads-up - I'll update the package accordingly. My first
upload got rejected because I botched the signing procedure, I'll have to
redo it anyway.

Any chance we can convince Richard to let this package slip into the
potato release yet?
