iBook problems (12in G4)

Postby cewood » 24 Aug 2004, 12:44

I just purchased a 12in G4 iBook and when i went to install ydl 3.0.1 it doesnt want to install in graphical mode, nor does X start after the installation. I have looked at all of the documentation that was on the site and am wondering if anyone can give me a hand, any assistance would be much appreciated. Kind regards, cewood

Im not sure if that would be wise (not sure if the flickering can or will damage the display); the support for the ati 9200 card from what i can find out is very flakey in the kernel used for ydl 3.0 - for a solution id suggest compiling a new kernel (though the 2.6.x kernels have good support for the card-it is a major pain to upgrade all the necessary packages to get it to run right) But mainly just wait for 4.0 it will be out in a manner of weeks and will have better support. Last I knew 3.0 didnt provide sleep or few other niceties for the g4 ibooks. Oh and as to why X doesnt respond right is that the card isnt properly recognized by in the installer/X
