| 09:46.30 | Agent-X | Hey guys. |
| 09:46.48 | peterrooney | Hey |
| 09:47.24 | Agent-X | I just did a fresh install of Debian 5.0.3 onto a iBook G4. Know of any good tutorials on how to get the basics working (sound / airport extreme)? |
| 09:48.17 | peterrooney | add users to group 'sound', and run alsaconf |
| 09:48.22 | peterrooney | as for the airport... |
| 09:49.46 | Agent-X | Should the sound group be an existing group or should I create it? |
| 09:49.54 | peterrooney | look for the bcm43xx-fwcutter |
| 09:50.06 | peterrooney | sound -should- already exist |
| 09:50.28 | Agent-X | Does it matter if I did a network install (slim)? |
| 09:50.46 | peterrooney | anyways, for broadcom wireless look for the look for the bcm43xx-fwcutter package |
| 09:50.47 | Agent-X | (not PXE) |
| 09:51.52 | peterrooney | net install doesn't really matter, as long as the repositories in sources.list have the sound packages - whihc is the case for pretty much every repo in the netinst CD |
| 09:52.05 | peterrooney | s/whihc/which/ |
| 09:52.18 | peterrooney | whoah. |
| 09:52.33 | Agent-X | hahaha |
| 09:53.06 | peterrooney | that that surprised me tells me I should lay off the coffee. |
| 09:53.17 | Agent-X | hahaha |
| 09:53.23 | Agent-X | That was funny |
| 09:55.16 | peterrooney | anyways, I recall the broadcom firmware cutter package has had some issues in the past, due to the firmwares occasionally moving around on the net. I remember I had to hack inside the .deb in the past to point it at the correct URL |
| 09:55.38 | peterrooney | anyways, I recall the broadcom firmware cutter package has had some issues in the past, due to the firmwares occasionally moving around on the net. |
| 09:55.41 | peterrooney | <PROTECTED> |
| 09:56.15 | Agent-X | that is always fun |
| 09:57.15 | peterrooney | not TOO hard, though - I extracted to a custom directory, edited the preinst script, and ran it. |
| 09:57.28 | Agent-X | The sound group doesn't currently exist |
| 09:58.13 | peterrooney | Agent-X: have you added any alsa packages yet? |
| 09:58.21 | Agent-X | no |
| 09:58.32 | Agent-X | I am going through the list right now |
| 10:00.27 | Agent-X | isn't "groupinstall" a valid apt-get command? |
| 10:00.39 | *** join/#debianppc ekl (n=ekl@host14-54-dynamic.53-79-r.retail.telecomitalia.it) |
| 10:02.10 | peterrooney | Agent-X: no, it isn't an apt-get command. I'm off to bed, the regulars may or may not be awake. I recall having questions answered days after they were asked. It's a low-traffic channel, with good signal to noise. |
| 10:02.24 | Agent-X | oops. that is YUM |
| 10:02.44 | Agent-X | peterrooney: I greatly appreciate the help! |
| 10:03.18 | peterrooney | Agent-X: ah, i remember now! it's group "audio" |
| 10:04.25 | Agent-X | no "audio" group yet. But I may still need to install the alsa packages |
| 10:50.10 | Agent-X | peterrooney: I got the wireless working following the normal b43-fwcutter directions: http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#fw-b43-new |
| 10:51.27 | Agent-X | Now all I have is the sound. Which when I run cat /proc/asound/cards I get that no cards are installed |
| 10:51.37 | Agent-X | Headed to bed |
