Another problem BTW with this Kernel is that I do not get the sound working
with it (but could be a configuration problem... I had not yet the time to
look after it).
Don't bother, that's a known problem as well. Blame Apple for not releasing
specs for the latest sound chips...
which machine, which kernel (and, if possible, which sound chip - can be
found from the MacOS side if not the Linux) ?

I'm trying to build a pattern to help track down the different issues & fix
'em...  there *is* work going on on the new chips - and the Darwin stuff is
helpful (i.e. I am hopeful of getting a more wide-ranging pmac sound support
over the next month or so)...

A "blue/white" G3 Mac first Revision. Kernel is: 2.2.17pre10-ben2 (with the
older
kernel Sound worked - at least I cannot remember that an error message during
OS-booting happened, I never tried out the sound then.
But the new Kernel is needed for the X Server V4)
To my knowledge, there have been no change to the sound driver in 2.2 lately

Which bootloader are you using ?

Ben.

Hmmm... maybe it did not work before either... but I first noticed the
"Failed"
after the installation of the new Kernel...

I boot up using the system extension...
