Hi All, |

Two questions: |

|
| 5 |
One: |
| 6 |
I'm currently using Gentoo for x86 (I love it) but when I tried to |
| 7 |
install it on my Powerbook Lombard, I couldn't get the networking to |
| 8 |
come up, even after modprobing. I assure you, I'm no Linux newbie. |
| 9 |
This was about two weeks ago or so, maybe a little less. I needed the |
| 10 |
powerbook to work with Linux, so I just installed Debian, which is cool, |
| 11 |
but I'm psyched to get Gentoo up and running on this. So, anyone know a |
| 12 |
workaround, or if there have been distro changes to reflect this |
| 13 |
problem? |
| 14 |
|

Two: |
| 16 |
Is there a current PPC kernel that works on the new G4s? I'm getting |
| 17 |
one at work, and while MacOS is fine and all that, I'm more of a linux |
| 18 |
head. I realize that the thing will more than likely boot, but will X |
| 19 |
work? If any of you have experience with any flavor of Linux on this |
| 20 |
box, I'd be curious to hear. |

Thanks in advance, and to the ppc-devs out there, keep it up! It is |
| 23 |
good to have choice on the L/PPC platform. |
