Dose it work? I noticed there > were some updates just a few hours ago. My usual tree (BenH) has a 2.5 variant, locked a 2.5.8pre3... I'm willing to try another one, but I'm still disapointed that regular Linus kernel can't even compile main.c on PPC. Just tried: all rsync access seems locked on 2.5.8pre3, and of course debian doesn't have bitkeeper in packages. And bitkeeper download site isn't really user-friendly (guess the "let's register yourself before download" attitude explain why it's not in debian, and not on my system either).Xorsis (ppckernel.org) has nothing beyond 2.4 ATM. Well, I'm still waiting for an accessible, ppc-usable 2.5.[something big enough] before I can port pm3fb. -- DOLBEAU Romain | Who'd believe we'd spend more ENS Cachan / Ker Lann | Shippin' drugs and guns Thesard IRISA / CAPS | Than to educate our sons? dolbeaur@club-internet.fr | -- Megadeth, 'Youthanasia' ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Bringing you mounds of caffeinated joy. http://thinkgeek.com/sf
