Lots of problems

[Giuliano Pochini <pochini@shiny.it>]

Hi!
This is a list of problems I have with official kernels and my G3 (350, SCSI)
and a G4 (400, ide) of a friend:


- 2.4.0t7: G3 and G4 OK. Resource collisions errors can be removed hacking
pci.c.

- 2.4.0t9, resource collisions: I can't boot my G3 because it doesn't see my
SCSI controller. On the G4 it reports collisions even if there are no PCI
cards.

- 2.4.0t9, USB: I tried HID, HIDBP, everything. No way to make USB working
on the G4.

- 2.2.15p3, linuxppc2000: The G4 doesn't boot, lost interrupts.

- 2.2.16+USB: The G4 doesn't boot, lost interrupts.

- 2.2.16-something from YDL: G4, Works fine but a lots things are missing, I
could not find the sources :(

- 2.2.18p19: G3 crashes at boot, probably USB related (usb-HIDBP). G4 and
usb-HID not tried yet (I'll do it this night).

- all: G4 internal modem doesn't work. Suggestions ? I absolutely need it !!

- 2.4.0*: G4 ethernet goes at 100Mbps even if it's connected to a 10Mbps hub. Is
there a way to force it to a lower speed ? Can the G3 eth go at 100MBps ?

How/where can I get the latest ppc patches ?

Bye.
