Sounds & screen on 7200/90 w/kernel 2.2.2
Hi,
I just booted Linux kernel 2.2.2 on a 7200/90 and it's looking fairly good except for two problems. First, I have a line across most of the screen about 2/3 down. It's 1-2 pixels high. This was in the (once-blue) boot screen as well as in the Xpmac display - it never goes away.
In dmesg, I see: platinum_set_var: Not activating.
Secondly, some of the sounds I have are very scratchy now. Volume seems to be messed up. I was hoping KDE 1.1pre sounds would work under this kernel, but no luck. I'm using the RPMS someone made for R4.
Thanks much,
