Hi Andreas,
when I had a working kernel (2.4) on my A1200PPC I had pb to boot if my
system was warpup. I had to switch to powerup to make the kernel boot.
maybe you could try to disable warpos with initppc (I think it was the
program I use to bring pup back).

Yep, thats the point, you need a new bootstrap.

On my machine, I have also an A4000T with CSPPC/CVPPC, I can only run  
2.4.20 (the latest 2.4.27 won't boot here; getting error on scsi).  
Note that the kernel won't boot correctly if you have any Flash card  
in your Amiga like Algor/Algor Pro or Kickflash. Remove your Algor  
and it should work.

Re: Can't startx

[Andreas <sup...@gm...>]

Hello,
last weekend I was sitting infront of my AMIGA and gave the 2.6 kernel a 
try. It failed, because bootstrap canceled with a message, that it can not 
allocate memory. I than compressed the kernel image with gzip. With that, I 
guess bootstrap gave the same message after decompressing the kernel. Don't 
remeber exactly what was printed out.
So far I have no working kernel found. I tried several kernels in the past 
and I remeber that several different problems occured. Maybe, if one of you 
has a working APUS system, could you please tell me, what files you are 
using too boot it. What problems did you have and how did you solve them? 
Any hint is welcome at the current stage. I could then do some more advanced 
testing with this info.
I remember that certain drivers sometimes caused the boot process to halt, 
like SCSI driver. Are there options available to disable such drivers for 
testing?
I have a A4000T (Amiga Technologies), CSPPC (DCE), Cybervision64/3D, Ariadne 
2, Algor. There are 8MB of RAM on the mainboard and 64MB on the CSPPC. I 
have WarpUP installed. If you need more info, feel free to ask, but response 
time from my side will unfortunately be quite slow, since I currently see my 
AMIGA only once a month or so :-(.
Bye,
Andreas

Looks like nobody ever tried that before. We have a 2.6.x but its not  
tested on Amiga.

Re: Can't startx

[Hamish <H_S...@ya...>]

Hello Sven

I would like to try the 2.6 kernel but because of my PPP problems have been
unable to download it, so I may have to sort this problem out. My problem
is when I try to connect the computer just freezes (before dialing). I have
had no problems with using my modem on the AmigaOS side (through Genesis
which came with OS3.9) and through Mac emulation (using FreePPP) in both
these cases I use the generic modem setup. I also read that you can use
files that you have downloaded to Amiga partitions, but I have only found
information for doing this on FFS partitions and I use PFS. Although I do
think it would be better to just get my PPP setup going in LInux rather
than going around it this way. Any ideas?

Cheers

Hamish

APUS and USB

[Matthias M. <dj...@gm...>]

Hi,

does the latest kernel support any USB hardware like Subway/Highway/ 
Algor? I have the problem that with kernel 2.4.20 and an Algor  
installed the system won't startup (just a black screen with the tux  
picture and the prombt cursor).

I am not sure, i think you need a newer version of the apusboot thingy. Roman,
can you comment on this ?

Ok and how do I use this kernel now? I tried it with my 2.4.20  
startup script and replaced vmlinux file but I get the error message  
"Unable to allocate memory".

look at :

for all files including apus. 


Ah, ... ftp.debian.org has indeed fallen prey to the remove-everything-but-x86

have forgotten the syntax for. I do :

-rw-r--r--          20k  2006-03-06 13:17 linux-image-apus_2.6.15-8_powerpc.deb

You want :  linux-image-2.6.15-1-apus_2.6.15-8_powerpc.deb

And make sure to file a bug report against linux-2.6, with [powerpc,apus] in
the tittle of the bug.

Debian had a 2.6.14 or even 2.6.15 kernel. Teh 2.6.16 kernel broke the apus
patches, but we are working on this. The 2.6.15 kernel is still in
debian/etch.

I don't have an apus box anymore myself, so i cannot really test those though.

Can you post your /var/log/XFree86.0.log please ? 

Also, there are 2.6 based kernels for apus, it would be nice if you could try
them out.

Thanks for the response Matthias

The Kernel I'm using is 2.4.27-apus. The desktop manger didn't start
automatically and entering gdm doesn't work either. I haven't been able t=
o
get a ppp set up, it just freezes so I skipped that, would that be causin=
g
problems or is it unrelated and can be set up later? Possibably the modem=

isn't reconised (it is connected to the standard Amiga serial port though=
).
Otherwise if this isn't affecting the desktop manager I would prefer to g=
et
a working desktop first.

Hope that helps!?

Hi,

shouldn't the desktop manager start autom.? Did you try to enter 'gdm'?
Which Kernel have you running?

Cheers,
Matthias

Can't startx

[Hamish <H_S...@ya...>]

Hi

I have just installed the lastest Stable, Sarge version of Debian on my
A1200T with 240Mhz blizzard PPC & Bvision, with 128mbs of RAM. The install
seemed to go well and I installed gnome through dselect again seemed to go
fine. Where my problem is when I login either as root or user and type
startx it says unknown comand as if it isn't installed?! I am new to Linux
but have been reading up on it and looking at docs on the net and haven't
found anything about this, anthough there is a lot of infomation out there
and I can't look under every stone! If anyone has any idea I would greatly
appreciate it.

Thanks

Hamish
