| | | | Noone has probably missed that a new release of Ubuntu was released the other day, Edgy Eft. The good news with this release is that it is possible to install (out-of-the-box) on Pegasos with the DVD, preferably downloaded with bittorrent (and no, the CD doesn't work). Boot the installer from OpenFirmware with
boot cd install/pegasos
The bad news is that X won't start after a default installation. It's a rather easy to fix by simply forcing use of proc instead of sysfs when X scans for pci devices, Ubuntu added a patch that made scanpci in X use sysfs instead by default which currently causes problems on Pegasos.
So we at Pegasos.org prepared a...
repository with a fix for the affect package. To use it add the line:
deb http://www.pegasos.org/ubuntu/edgy binary/
to your /etc/apt/sources.list file. Also install the public key for authentication of the packages (not required).
wget -O- http://kozz.org/files/keys/kozz-pubkey.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
Run
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
to install the new packages. Then it should be as simple as running
/etc/init.d/gdm restart
to make X start.
The source is available at
deb-src http://www.pegasos.org/ubuntu/edgy source/

Fine to know! :)
Is it possible to start the live-dvd with a Pegasos, not just the installation-procedure?
