Hi all, I've just installed Linux PPC 200 Q4 on my 500Mhz iMac with the ATI Rage 128 video card. The system works fine, but I see the whole screen moved some pixels to the left and in 1024x768x8. I would like to have the (centered) screen on 800x600 with 16bit color depth.... I know I have to define this on the yaboot.conf file... but I couldnt find any instructions. If anyone could help me, it would be great.

Thanks for all!!!!

Had YDL 2.0 running installed no problem, but i couldn't get it to boot into mac os, so i reset the PRAM now I can't get YDL to boot, I've tried booting it in openfirmware but it says it can't open yaboot.

I have a PowerMac 4400 running Yellow Dog Linux 2.0, and a LaserWriter Select 310 connected to that. I tried using printtool to add the printer to printcaps and tried using stty to set the correct communication settings for /dev/ttyS1 but it refuses to print anything!

Hello, I just got a brand new nifty ibook2. After installing a million times I finally have woody running. I am using my ibook a lot at school however when I walk in late the annoying bell is a little disruptive when I boot up. Is it possible to disable this? Thank you...

I was wondering if there is a Macromedia Flash 5 player out there that will work with Linux running on Mac hardware. I'm brand new at this so please help.

Playing audio files (E.g. AU and WAV) work okay on my iMac DV SE circa 2000. However, both the Gnome and KDE CD Players fail to play an inserted music CD i.e. no sound is produced although the programs seem oblivious to this. I have the same results with LinuxPPC (latest), Yellowdog 2.0, and Mandrake 8.0 [currently installed and I'd like to keep it]. Note that after booting over to the MAcOS 9.0.4 side of the same machine, I can play music CDs. Thank you ina advance for any help that you can render, Richard

I have a 7500 with g3, and everything worked slickly until I added an Adaptec 2940UW card and an Ultrastar HD. I compiled 2.4.7 and the scsi issues no longer exist, but the 2940 becomes channel A, and the onboard scsi goes from a & b to b & c. My linux partitions are connected to a Quantum 50pin drive on channel B. (MESH) I changed the box in the BootX app/control panel accordingly, and I tried the "root=/dev/sdb9" arg, but nothing worked.

I just tried installing YDL 2.0 on my PowerMac 4400@200MHz with 64MB RAM and an Apple Multiple Scan 15 monitor (the old ugly ones). It used to work fine with CS-1.2.1 but YDL 2.0 messes up, even at the installation. It's fine for about half a second and then it switches to an unsupported resolution. I tried putting atyfb:vmode:17:cmode:16 as Kernel arguments in BootX and enabling Force Video Settings but that didn't help. If anyone knows how to get this thing to work, please tell me! Thanks, Evin

Attempting to install Yellowdog 2.0 on a beige box G3/300 with a Studio 17 (blue and white) monitor. Have followed the instructions (partitioning to the T), install Os 9 and then re-boot, opens up Boox X window, choose linux and then the jaggered screen appears (according to the Engineers notes, this is normal). The jaggered screen then just hangs. Any suggestions? Thanks much.
