I have placed the ibook2 patches here: http://www.penguinppc.org/~olaf/ibook2/patches/ 70__00_linux-2.4.8--benh.diff.gz 70__2.4.8-ibook2_dmasound.diff.gz 70__2.4.8-ibook2_zzz_dmasound-requestmodule.diff.gz Everything is against 2.4.8, maybe it fits on the 2.4.9 tree. What I have found so far is that you have sound working after modprobe dmasound_pmac. when you launch kmix the volume slider is at 100%. but as soon as you move the volume control a bit the sound gets really loud. So I guess the driver reports the wrong volume level to the userland. Gruss Olaf -- $ man clone BUGS Main feature not yet implemented... ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list.
