Gday guys,

A few of you may already know from the previous post, that I was
working on the system-config-soundcard.  I lodged this as a bug in
bugzilla <a href="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=146357">
here </a> and I have some basic test rpm packages available from my <a
href="http://blog.subverted.net/personal/code/system-config-soundcard-ppc/">
system</a>.

Although this is entered and assigned in bugzilla, i'd like to know
how this code works, so that I can possibly compare notes with Bastien
Nocera when a fix is made on his end.

The latest are the time of writing are the *2wm rpms, whenever I need
a fix, a newer version will appear.

Could you pop the unified diff there for inspection too.

Subject: kernel update, how?
Message-ID: <42036D52.2050403@yahoo.com>

Last night I updated my kernel-2.6.9-1.667 to kernel-2.6.10-1.729_FC3 via up2date (yum) from:
ftp://ftp.linux.org.uk/pub/people/dwmw2/fc3-kernel-ppc/

Then I yabootconfig using the new /boot/vmlinuz-*. Upon reboot, it got stuck on the SELinux lines.

It was the first time I updated the kernel and I might have missed something. Can any one provide step-by-step instructions of what to do after installing the new kernel w/ up2date?

Thanks,
Soetji

You shouldn't need to to anything. Install the new RPM, reboot -- it
should have added itself to yaboot.conf all by itself. If it doesn't
work, file bugs.

Does booting with selinux=0 get you any further?

At the yaboot prompt hit tab to list the kernels

boot the current kernel with eg:

linux selinux=0

Replace linux with the image name shown in the listing by hitting tab.  The default image if any is marked with a *

Don't yabootconfig. The kernel package should set yaboot.conf correctly 
on install, and you can tweak it manually afterwards if it doesn't suit 
you. Yabootconfig doesn't add the initrd, and booting without an initrd 
causes the observed symptom (at least it did for me, if I remember 
correctly).

Since I guess yabootconfig has overwritten your old yaboot.conf, the 
easiest solution would probably be getting your system bootable again 
somehow and then removing and re-installing the new kernel. Assuming 
that yabootconfig got everything else correctly, you should only have 
to add the initrd. It may be possible to specify it at the yaboot 
prompt. Or boot from a rescue CD (don't know whether you can get a 
shell with boot.iso?).

I'm having trouble getting helix recognized as a plug-in within mozilla/firefox.  I'm running on a mac g4 with the "official" fc3 from Nov.  I look under \usr\lib\mozilla\plugins and I see the .so file.  I saw some other posts in a different forum referring to a "logical link" to get a java plugin working.  do I need to do something similar?  what do I link from?  also, I saw other references to \usr\local\mozilla\plugins.  Is this something I'm supposed to create?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  
I just got fedora up and running on my mac, so sorry if this is a dumb question.

Thanks,

Message-ID: <1107537391.18239.106.camel@baythorne.infradead.org>

I'm working on building FC3 extras for ppc. I've got most of it built.
Not exactly relishing the thought of cvsup, although cm3 does seem to
have a PPC port, so I may switch to using that for both i386 and ppc. 

Downloadable at ftp://peach.ipv6.infradead.org/pub/RPMS.extras for now,
IPv6-only as the name implies, until I stick them somewhere with better
bandwidth.

Major failure mode so far has been random use of i386 inline assembly. A
bunch of packages failed due to files present in the buildroot which
aren't packaged, and clamav seems to want dietlibc.

Any suggestions for how best to automate the Extras/ppc builds in future
would be welcomed.

Looks like missing /dev/console for me (and it doesn't print message that 
console can't be opened if I'm correct ).

Thanks for all the responses. I added the initrd and it is working now. Won't edit yaboot.config manually next time!

Using the script that seth uses for building x86/x86_64 will be
appropriate, I'm guessing

What is it built against, the FC-3 snapshot we posted at
duke/fedoraproject, or Rawhide?

in the base repo.
http://fedoraproject.org/fedorappc/FC-3/os/Fedora/RPMS/

in the updates repo you will only find updates.

you should add the repos to your /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources
# man up2date


unfortunately, yum does not work :-(

Fedora Core 3 works on the Mac Mini. Went through Colin's instructions 
last night and got it installed. X, Apple Bluetooth Mouse and Keyboard, 
dual booting, DVD playing, etc. all work seamlessly. Thanks for all your 
work.

Some questions:
1. Colin, I'm gonna send you a diff of your instructions to contain 
stuff for Mini users, as well as clear some things up I found confusing. 
Before I finish, though, I have to know: is the boot.iso askmethod 
install mandatory for all installs? I did a network install for various 
reasons.

2. Wade: installed system-config-soundcard-1.2.10-2wm (thanks for your 
work), the soundcard is detected (the tools says it'll use snd_powermac) 
but I can't hear anything when the test sound is played (I hear there's 
something weird with volume control on the card - maybe that's it?). On 
the console, I get
'amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such device'
I know this sounds silly, but running strace doesn't seem to show the 
device its looking for. Maybe I'm blind.

2. Wade: installed system-config-soundcard-1.2.10-2wm (thanks for your
work), the soundcard is detected (the tools says it'll use snd_powermac)
but I can't hear anything when the test sound is played (I hear there's
something weird with volume control on the card - maybe that's it?). On
the console, I get
'amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such device'
I know this sounds silly, but running strace doesn't seem to show the
device its looking for. Maybe I'm blind.

I had this same problem on my powerbook G4.  I had to unmute the master
volume in alsamixer.  I couldn't get the alsammixer to work in the GUI,
only in command line.  After unmuting, try running
system-config-soundcard.  Should work after that.

What is the channel called when you run the amixer command ?

Okay, what's missing after running s-c-s and then stracing alsamixer...:

access("/etc/asound.conf", R_OK)        = -1 ENOENT (No such file or 
directory)
access("/root/.asoundrc", R_OK)         = -1 ENOENT (No such file or 
directory)
open("/dev/snd/controlC0", O_RDONLY)    = -1 ENODEV (No such device)
open("/dev/aloadC0", O_RDONLY)          = -1 ENOENT (No such file or 
directory)
open("/dev/snd/controlC0", O_RDWR)      = -1 ENODEV (No such device)
open("/dev/snd/controlC0", O_RDONLY)    = -1 ENODEV (No such device)
open("/dev/aloadC0", O_RDONLY)          = -1 ENOENT (No such file or 
directory)
open("/dev/snd/controlC0", O_RDWR)      = -1 ENODEV (No such device)

I'd assumed udev would've created these upon finding the device... any 
ideas?

Subject: iBook G4 install help, please
Message-ID: <E1CyNLS-00044i-00@smtp01.mrf.mail.rcn.net>

Hi all, I just bought an iBook G4 a few days ago, and I'm dying to get
Fedora Core 2 installed on it.  I followed these instructions here - 

 

http://www.bytebot.net/geekdocs/ibook/fc2ppc.html

 

I have the iso burned, and get the yaboot prompt.  When I type "mac", or
"mac text", or "mac noprobe", it starts to install, I see some linux output,
but then quickly the video display output dies on me, and I need to reboot.


 

All I set up were 2 partitions, splitting the 30g harddrive in two.  The
first partition is the Mac, the second is meant for linux.  

 

I see references to using mac-fdisk, but can't get to a point in the install
where I have that opportunity.  It's a linux-based utility, right?  

 

I don't see how I can create a bootstrap partition either, I've read that I
should be doing that as well.

 

I have no interest in running Mac OS X, to be honest, got the laptop because
its real tiny, not crazy expensive, and can support running Fedora.  

 

Any/all advice is appreciated, sincerely.  Thanks. Jason

Ok, I have those files on my ibook, what model machine are you running.

What do you have in your /dev/snd directory, do you have a /dev/audio
or /dev/dsp ?

Can you also dump me the output of amixer command ?

The MacIO PCI device shows up as:
     0001:10:17.0 Class ff00: Apple Computer Inc. KeyLargo/Intrepid Mac I/O

The soundcard, from /etc/sysconfig/hwconf
-
class: AUDIO
bus: MACIO
detached: 0
driver: snd_powermac
desc: "Apple Computer Inc.|PowerMac Sound"

(wish there was an lsmacio...)

And that's all.

No, neither.

amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such device

And that's all. Is this just a matter of some missing udev rules?

Ok.. there is no ISO file in that directory.  You might find your
experience would be better if you used the ISO files from:
http://fedora.linux.duke.edu/fedorappc/FC-3/isos/ rather than FC2
based ISO files.

In-Reply-To: <cfb1d0d9050208031146ee6280@mail.gmail.com>
Message-ID: <3p803d$30e2u@smtp05.mrf.mail.rcn.net>

Hi All, I just got Fedora Core 3 installed on my iBook G4, trying to dual
boot with MacOSX, stumbling a bit though. 

The background:
This is my machine - iBook Mac OS X Version 10.3.5 1.2 GHz PowerPC G4
This is my linux image - /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667
This is where I got my iso from -
http://fedora.linux.duke.edu/fedorappc/FC-3/isos/

I was able to boot into linux, and did some configs to my yaboot.conf to
enable dual booting:

parted gave me this info:
hda3 - macosx
hda6 - bootloader
hda5 - swap
hda2 - the full ext3 file system

So, I ran these commands:

yabootconfig -r /dev/hda4 -b /dev/hda6

/sbin/ybin -v

I also edited the /etc/yaboot.conf file and added:

macosx=/dev/hda3
enablecdboot

Ok, so after that, I'm able to boot into MacOSX fine, sweet. 
However, I rebooted and tried to start linux.. Unfortunately, no luck, I'm
getting the following error:

EXT2-fs warning (device hda2): ext2_fill_super: mounting ext3 filesystem as
ext2
VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly.
Warning: unable to open an initial console.

Then, a bunch of security/SELinux output, and it hangs.

Any help someone can provide is greatly appreciated, thanks much. Jason

Rock! We have a kernel that works

Was this rawhide or FC-3 (fedorappc release)?

Sure, diff away.

Not really; linux askmethod was so we could get CDROM installs going. I
think we need to fix anaconda, so the doco in place at hte moment makes
room for that

What does your /etc/modprobe.conf look for sound? Paste the output here

Just installed system-config-soundcard-1.2.10-2wm.noarch.rpm and it detected the soundcard for the first time on my iBook2 G3.

Vendor: Apple Computer Inc.
Model: PowerMac Sound
Module: snd_powermac

But when I press "Play test sound" no sound came out and output'd:
Simple mixer control 'PCM',0
  Capabilities: pvolume pvolume-joined
  Playback channels: Mono
  Limits: Playback 0 - 176
  Mono: Playback 132 [75%]

Any thoughts?

I was talking about the focus of the documentation - personally I was 
thinking of lowering the bar to entry by making it easy to get Fedora 
onto people's systems, using simple documentation and the current ISOs 
(with exceptions for G5 users). This has the benefit of getting a whole 
lot of beta testers and hopefully contributors on board. What do you reckon?

Haha OOo-i18n. My favorite package to up2date. While I'm at it - Colin, 
do you know much about OOo and iWork interoperability? Does iWork use 
OASIS or is there / will there be XSLT to convert the different formats?

hahahaha. I just looked inside it - it seems s-c-s may have a bug where 
it keeps writing the same post module load scripts over and over again...

install snd_powermac /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd_powermac && 
/usr/sbin/alsactl restore >/dev/null 2>&1 ||:

remove snd_powermac { /usr/sbin/alsactl store >/dev/null 2>&1 || : ; }; 
/sbin/modprobe -r --ignore-remove snd_powermac

Might get rid of the duplicates and retest...

Seeing that we don't have a regular install _yet_, lets refocus at the
moment, and work towards getting Rawhide going

While typing sometime my hand accidentally touch the touchpad on my iBook G3. And you know how annoying it is when the cursor suddenly jumps away from where it should be. Can the touchpad be disabled while I am typing? I have seen this option in other systems.

Never tried iWork, but if I do get a chance to give it a twirl, I'd take
a gander. Doubt it uses OASIS XML standards. But if it were XML, we
could get XSLT stuff going on

Now, time to buy iWork or something. Bah

Make sure you have the initrd specified in your yaboot.conf. The it
should look something like...

image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.10-1.1136_FC4
        label=2.6.10-1.1136_F

You can boot to rescue mode to do this; don't forget to run ybin afterwards.

I think this is a byproduct of the way that I've modified
system-config-soundcard.  When i get some time i'll hack on this.  I

I know Paul did an install on his iMac and was successful

So, I did one today on the iBook G3. X detection from anaconda wasn't
appropriate (first time this has happened, incidentally); relevant
bugzilla filed (radeon 7500 not being configured well).

Autopartitioning is still something that needs to be fixed. Manual disk
druid partitioning works

There is an /etc/yaboot.conf with the appropriate initrd line available.
However, the drive isn't blessed (so running /sbin/mkofboot, and then
saying Y will allow you to get fedora booting - in the instructions,
this is stated to be /sbin/yabootconfig ...)

X, for the Radeon 7500 actually comes up, using fbdev, at 640x480. Its
ugly :P

rhgb works.

SELinux brought up a system that was rather weird - ping, scp,
traceroute wouldn't work (error while loading shared libraries: cannot
restore segment prot after reloc: Permission denied). Bringing it up
with selinux=0 solved that for me quickly.

APM is still installed by default. Why is apmd.spec showing:
	ExclusiveArch: %{ix86} ppc

Do we really want apmd running on PPC? I'd have figured pmud/pbbuttonsd
(i'm vouching for the former) would be a better bet. Incidentally, David
Woodhouse should be posting (or has already posted) for pmud's inclusion
into Extras

I updated my powerbook to rawhide a few days ago, just after the rpm-4.4
update. Nothing broken on it that isn't broken on i386, afaict. It's
just the installer autopartitioning and yaboot stuff which needs
attention for PPC, I think.

I'm using a lot of FC3/ppc machines for real work, and there's basically
not a lot wrong with FC3 other than the installer, either.

We don't get battstat_applet support in gnome-applets unless we
provide /usr/lib/libapm.a. Yes, that sucks.

Agreed. We need to fix:
a) autopartitioning
b) since we provide a correct yaboot.conf, just run mkofboot and bless
it

I took the YDL patches I liked, I updated to apmud-1.0.0 from upstream,
I fixed the fcntl thing properly, I updated the init script. There's
possibly more that could be done, but it's working for now. I'll import
it in the morning.

Ok, got it working.  For anyone reading following this subject, upon reboot,
I had to hold down the option - command - p  - r keys, and let the computer
"chime" 3 times to reset the nvram?, or else it wouldn't check the new
yaboot config.  I was golden after I realized that. Thanks much. Jason

Subject: G5-bootable FC3 tree.
Message-ID: <1108632454.31449.19.camel@localhost.localdomain>

I've produced a tree with current errata and a 64-bit boot.iso,
available at ftp://ftp.uk.linux.org/pub/linux/fedora-ppc/fc3-ppc/
or rsync://ftp.uk.linux.org/ftp/linux/fedora-ppc/fc3-ppc 

It's not tested yet, but hopefully images/mac64/boot.iso should boot on
the G5 and allow you to install. I've sent the anaconda patch which
creates the 64-bit boot.iso to Jeremy, so hopefully we'll see
images/mac64/boot.iso in rawhide some time soon, too. 

The 32-bit installation should work the same as FC3 does, using
images/mac/boot.iso. One day we ought to put them both on the same CD
image -- it wouldn't be very hard to do so. Ideally, we could even make
CD 1 bootable.

This FC3 tree doesn't contain any of the other Mac-related fixes from
rawhide anaconda -- you still have to do the yaboot stuff for yourself
according to Colin's instructions.

It didn't. Passing it through s/MacRISC3/MacRISC4/ makes it boot though.
The result is in boot.iso.fixed in the same directory. I'll send the
incremental patch to fix that in rawhide too.

Yeah, fairly much the same behaviour on the spare PPC32 machine I tried
-- loads the network driver, keeps insisting that I select a network
driver or supply a driver disc, refuses to install. Is that one fixed in
rawhide?

/me tests.... evidently not. This patch should fix it.

I still don't like the fact that kudzu can declare that there are no
network devices present even when the module is loaded and the device is
clearly shown in /proc/net/dev. Making it know about the BMAC feels like
a workaround rather than a fix -- kudzu _ought_ to be able to fall back
to just noticing that it's already supported.

Subject: Autopartitioning.
Message-ID: <1108757855.19262.705.camel@hades.cambridge.redhat.com>

The attached patch makes it try to create a bootstrap partition, and
makes it refrain from trying (and failing) to use LVM.

The bit in partitions.py to make isBootable() true on the bootstrap
partition doesn't seem to work, which is why the bootstrap partition
still isn't first. Dunno why. 

If you hack it to set numDrives=-1 for Apple Bootstrap even when it's
not bootable, you still end up with the bootstrap after the rootfs.
Again, I don't know why.

If you delete all old partitions, it doesn't realise that partition #1
on a Mac is actually the partition table itself, so it's going to get
confused when it tries to create another partition #1. We possibly want
to fix doClearPartAction() to leave the partition table (partition 1)
alone.

If you tell it to delete only Linux partitions, it doesn't recognise
your original bootstrap partition as such, so it creates another. That
wants fixing too.

Aldy, wanna take over and play with it while I go off in search of good
and life?

I've just done some playing with rawhide installs, and I think it's well
worth including it for FC4T1 -- we can always drop it later if we really
have to, not that I think that'll be necessary.

It's only really the installer which was in question -- the distro
itself has been fairly solid on PPC since at least FC2, if you could get
it to install. 

Anaconda in rawhide is now capable of installing the bootloader
correctly and rendering the system bootable -- unlike in FC3. That was
the biggest problem in the past.

Remaining issues (see tracker BZ #121179):

- Rawhide lacks a 64-bit boot.iso for the Mac G5. That's fixed with the
patch in BZ #149081.

- Autopartitioning doesn't work well. That's partially fixed with the
patch in BZ #121266, but there's a few more relatively minor issues
which could do with being fixed by someone who understands anaconda, or
at least speaks python. The problem is definitely tractable though. 

- A few X configuration problems. These should also be relatively easy.
There's an Xautoconfig package from Yellow Dog which gets it right, and
it's just a case of getting system-config-display and/or anaconda to
learn the same tricks.

All that lot is fixed, and autopartitioning on the Mac now seems to work
correctly. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=121266

Dropping the fc3ppc.repo into /etc/yum.repos.d/ should be useful now

We are talking about it, and its likely that ISOs will show itself.
How's about waiting for test1 and seeing for yourself?

I'm also hoping for a fc4 ppc - hopefully in the test releases.
It seems that people are working very hard on it - the new livna tree  
is a VERY good sign, and what was listed as blockers a few weeks ago -  
a lot of it seems to have been dealt with (just from reading the list)

My main reason for wanting it is because I run Fedora Core on x86 and  
it would be nice to just run the same thing everywhere - like back in  
the days when RH 6.x/7.x and YDL 1.x/2.x allowed me to basically do so.

So I'm hoping that if not by fc4t1, that we'll have something by fc4t2  
or t3.

I'm going to take a gamble and just try one when a FC test (or final)  
is released - AT&T Plug&share (the 54g model) works just swell in x86  
fedora, I'll try that one first I suppose - I can steal it from my PC  
probably long enough to see if it works before buying another.

It'll also let me test the rpm.livna.org bugzilla rpm in PPC FC.
Would anyone have suggestions for wireless 802.11g not necessarily  
based on Atheros if that doesn't work?

The machine is a 450 MHz G4. I don't want to go 802.11b, and where the  
machine is going (the kitchen) I can't go straight cat5, a wireless  
bridge I suppose would be an option - but I'd rather not do that (I'd  
have bought a slot CRT iMac if I wanted to do that)

I would of course prefer Atheros because that's what my desktop and  
laptop use, and I know madwifi works well - even if it does taint.

I use FC3 PPC on my Mac Mini every day, for production use.
The install was A Little Weird, but that's about it.

OSX refuses to work with my iPod, wants me to waste space duplicating 
every song on it in a local library, and has a crappy OpenOffice. I find 
FC3 with Firefox, Thunderbird, GTKPod, Nautilus CD Burner, the sexy FC3 
OpenOffice, etc. much more pleasant.

Subject: FC3 Installation on G5 comments
Message-ID: <421E1B57.4060503@sgi.com>

Hi everyone,

I am not a subscriber so if you have any questions/comments about the 
behaviour I'm seeing, please feel free to send them to prarit@sgi.com.

I've gone through Colin's steps to install FC3 on my G5 and came across 
these issues.

FYI, I did an "Everything" install.

1.  yabootconfig does not seem to translate the "--initrd" option into 
the /etc/yaboot.conf file.

I specified

    yabootconfig -r /dev/hda9 -b /dev/hda12 --kernel boot/vmlinuz-* 
--initrd boot/initrd-*

but my /etc/yaboot.conf file did not list an "initrd=/boot/initrd-*" 
option.

Workaround: edit /etc/yaboot.conf and issue ybin command.

2.  "Everything" install installs both the ppc64 kernel and the ppc32 
kernel.

Workaround: delete ppc32 kernels.

3.  I had to turn off kudzu.

Kudzu was doing something for about 10 mins before I finally gave up and 
CTRL-ALT-DEL'd the machine.  The system did not hang or oops.... I 
haven't bothered to investigate any further.

Workaround: enter "Interactive" setup, skip Kudzu.  At system prompt, 
chkconfig kudzu off.  Reboot.

4.  I had to turn off cups

Ditto.

Workaround: enter "Interactive" setup, skip cups.  At system prompt, 
chkconfig cups off.  Reboot.

In the end, I have a great FC3 system :)

If it looks like a PPC-specific problem, post to the PPC list. If not,
post to fedora-test-list. If not, take a guess (or cross-post) and I'm
sure someone will guide you. Use some initiative.

Again, if it's PPC-specific then it can't hurt to start on the PPC list.
If not, do whatever you'd do normally with arch-independent bugs. Either
way, you should probably be filing bugs in bugzilla rather than relying
on mailing lists.

You would also do well to join #fedora-ppc on irc.freenode.net if it's
just advice and assistance you're after rather than a channel for
reporting bugs.

cross-posting is not possible,
you can see that my posting at
fedora-ppc@lists.infradead.org and fedora-test-list@redhat.com
arrives both here in this list and none in the fedora-test-list@redhat.com.

gcj4 is now working fine for me again, so we can progress.

those language pack rpms I spoke of are available for 1.9.77. See 
http://people.redhat.com/caolanm/openoffice.org2/ Kind of big I admit.

i386 build with all languages is approx 10 hours

Run finished Thu Feb 24 13:15:32 2005
ppc build with the same start time is still not finished.

thanks for the first steps in fedora ppc but i will go the direct fedora rawhide/testing way,

It did appear in fedora-test-list. See

What did you include that  in your mail for? You seem to be just
randomly cutting and pasting things, and making up non-existent email
addresses and URLs. Please try to be as concise as possible.

The rest of your mail, including some parts which seem to have been
written by someone else but are wrongly quoted, doesn't make a lot of
sense either.

Hi,

 I'm not subscribed, so please CC me if appropriate.

 I finally got around to putting linux on my new iBook this week, and
last night I thought I'd try loading FC3.  Put the boot CD in, selected
linux, the kernel started to load, and then the screen cleared as if it
was changing to the framebuffer, but the box was dead.  Screen backlight
was on, not responding to keys (including the on/off button).  Left it
on battery in the hope it would run down and then I'd be able to eject
the CD when I booted, but after about 15 minutes I realised the
backlight was off and it responded to the on/off button.

 From looking at /proc/cpuinfo (I put ubuntu on earlier) it's using a
7447A clocked variously at 533 or 1066MHz, pvr 8003 0101, machine
PowerBook6,5

 Apologies if this is a known problem, but I couldn't see any links to
point me to the correct bugzilla.

Hello list,

I've spent the last two days beating over MOL trying to get it to work  
with FC3 and the 767 DWMW2 kernel. The application builds fine, but the  
kernel section fails miserably. I saw a message to this list on the  
same subject in the archives, but it was not of any help.

I found some patches for YellowDog users here:  
http://www.mail-archive.com/yellowdog- 
general@lists.terrasoftsolutions.com/msg00133.html and those helped get  
past some errors, but now the 'make modules' still fails when compiling  
ethertap.c and tun.c.

I am wondering if anyone has had success building MOL with FC3/PPC?
