Re: Linux kernel 3.x problems on PowerMac G5

I'm running 3.7.6 without any problems on my quad core machine. You
have to try to compile with g5_defconfig...

Thanks. Then i configured something wrongly probably.
I tried Linux 2.6.39.4 and it boots too.
I looked around on the Internet and it seems i'm not the only one
who has problems with Linux 3.x on my PowerMac G5.
I have no problem with 3.8 either, but mine is a PowerMac7,3.
Ok. I have a quad core G5 which is also a 11,2, it's even my primary
workstation in the office :-) So it tends to work fine but I admit I
haven't updated the kernel on it in a while.

Phileas, send me the .config you're using, there might be an issue
there, I'll do some tests next week.

Cheers,
Ben.
