Hi,
Im posting this here also. Just tried out the Fedora Core 4 installation on the Pegasos, and it worked very fine.
More and more Linux distribution comes to supporting PowerPC and the Pegasos platform.
Means also that GGS-Data from now also offers Pegasos also with Fedora Core 4 installed. There is a couple of choices by now, so you can choose which one you prefer most.
If you would like to install Fedora 4 on your Pegasos, you find the isos to download here: Link to Fedora 4 iso-images
When it comes to Ubuntu - the Linux for Humans Being, Ubuntu Breezy will be the choice forward. |

yashin71, keep in mind to not use the root account to much, as the risk is a lot bigger that things goes wrong if something bad would happen.
Said that, what does dmesg say?
Do you have the following files:
Code: |
/dev/adsp
/dev/audio
/dev/dsp
/dev/mixer
/dev/sequencer
/dev/sound/adsp
/dev/sound/audio
/dev/sound/dsp
/dev/sound/mixer
/dev/sound/sequencer
|
Have you installed OSS support for your alsa?
How does your /etc/modules.d/alsa look like? |
