Mar 2, 2010I had to build it with nls (locales) and the mozilla-plugin disabled, due to the Lenny libc6 causing problems.
Link (about 40 Mb): [url]
Big and Free link: (may disappear): [url]
64-bit debs only (about 9 MB): [url]
I have had reports of the aspect ratio being weird for ATI cards, as well as no full screen, but it works fine in the Virtual Box Lenny, as well as on my Intel graphics.
You will also need the lenny-backports repo, to get some missing or updated libraries. see backports.org
You would need to install the vlc-data deb first, then you can install the rest of the debs: (except for the -dbg version, unless you need it) dpkg -i *386.deb
If you have missing dependencies, you get an error=1, so get the missing dependencies with aptitude -f install or apt-get -f install. You may have to manually install the lenny-backports libraries if you have trouble. You actually don't need the -dev, dbg, and most of the other libraries, so you may want to look at what the vlc metapackage needs and install those.
Ubuntu Multimedia :: Resolution With Emulators After Install New Graphics Card?
Feb 4, 2011Just tried and failed miserably to get an Nvidia 6200 based graphics card to play nice with my machine.After putting my ATI Radeon 9200 back in the box, my emulators have gone all kinds of strange.
ZSNES will crash as soon as I attempt to load a game full screen and will leave the screen resolution at the resolution ZSNES was running in (800 x 600, for example.GENS again will alter the screen resolution to whatever it was running in when the emulator is minimised. I'm running 10.10 with 1gb Ram, 128mb ATI Radeon card, P4 3ghz. Was all fine until I tried the new card and I did a fresh install only last week .
Multimedia :: Ubuntu Gnome Theme Not Compatible With Debian / What To Do?
Oct 27, 2010Im trying to use a Gnome theme designed for Ubuntu on Debian. Ive installed it into /usr/share/themes and the window border and close, minimise maximise buttons show up right but the other controls (buttons, scrollbars, progress bars etc) dont and default to the generic ones.
I know nothing about how themes work really but I assumed as long as both distros were using Metacity it would work?

Deb file and source: [URL] This is a temporary location, I'm sure upstream will have a fixed version soon.

Jul 17, 2010I have downloaded Debian/PowerPC_lenny from http://www.debian.org/distrib/netinst. The netinst CD or the minimal CD for some reason doesn't boot. When I put it in the CD-ROM it doesn't begin whatever it has to do. Do I need to do anything? I restart my iBook G4 (1.33 GHz PowerPC G4) several times and held the "c" button (for CD-ROM) but nothing has happened. I wonder if someone can help me begin the installation process.
FYI, I have partitioned my hard drive into two volumes. I would like to install Debian in one of them. I *do not* want my Mac OS X to get disappeared in the Debian installation process. So please help me if you would as to how I can (1) boot Debian minimal CD and (2) install Debian on one of the two volumes I have on my iBook.

May 31, 2015I am new using linux and don't have too much experience in terminal, however I am curious and work hard. I have an imac G5 powerpc with 2g processor, 768 mb ram and 232.7g hard disk. I recentrly installed debian 8.0.0 (jessie) with xfce environement. I have three other computers (two with xununtu runing and one with windows) using dropbox to sync all my work in differents places, so I use dropbox to get all synchronized. I don't want to change all the pc's to other cloud service, I would like to install dropbox in this machine.
I installed libnet-dropbox-api-perl, pear-channels and pho-dropbox packages from the synptic package manager with the hope to use dropbox...but I dind't even find something colled dropbox in the pc.
My question is: is it possible to install and use dropbox in this powerpc machine ? if yes, is there a tuto (for dumps) to get it ?

Dec 28, 2010I have just installed Squeeze on my 5+ year old iBook G4 and it runs quite nicely and quite fast! I am very happy with it overall.

I have two major issues right now:1. There's something wrong with the sound system. I get the following error message when I clickon the small x to the right of Volume Control (on the upper right corner of my screen). See attached screen shot.

View 2 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Debian Squeeze PowerPC On IBook / Relentless DriveReady SeekComplete Errors
Jan 28, 2011I've been trying to set up MintPPC on my girlfriend's old iBook. I started with the debian squeeze installation from a burned cd. Everything went fine and i booted into the new system.
No matter what I try to install I get that error, with different sectors each time. I can install .debs using dpkg just fine, I can compile source code. apt-get just won't work.I've been reading about this for hours, and the machine is currently running e2fsck -c on the main filesystem. It is a more or less never ending stream of those errors with a few that reference task_pio_intr rather than dma_intr thrown in for good measure.I've been reading for hours but I haven't found anything on the google or forums that matches my problem(or atleast not that I could understand).
From my research I've tried hdparm to change the DMA mode, slower and faster and no luck, removing the .bins in one of the apt folders, and reinstalling debian.I've read the posts I could find on here, and mostly the problem seemed to be intermittent for them. For me it is only when I use apt-get, and now apparently e2fsck(badblocks). It happens every single time with apt, I can't use it to install anything. But i've done plenty of other file operations without a bump.Any suggestions would be most welcome! Especially an in depth explanation of what that message means. I'm happy to do my own research and work, I just have no idea what's going on!
Ubuntu :: Emulators Not Working ?
Feb 7, 2010The problem I have is that I am not able to get ANY of my Emulators to work in Ubuntu.
I have been trying for months now, but there isn't a single reliable emulator that works on Ubuntu.
There always seems to be problems with lagging, and sound issues that never seem to get resolved.
This is beyond frustrating because Gaming is the one thing i need to have on my computer, yet it is the only thing I'm not able to get working.
Do any of you know of any alternative suggestions to fix this problem?
I have tried EVERY available emulator for both Windows (Used on Wine) and Ubuntu.
Is there some kind of general setting for Wine that I am overlooking?
Here are a list of Consoles I want to play:
- Super Nintendo
- Nintendo
- Sega Genesis
- Sega Master System
- Nintendo 64
- Playstation
- Gameboy Advanced and Original

View 2 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Building System To Run Emulators?
Nov 2, 2009Looking at building a system that basically just runs emulators (nes, snes, etc). Haven't messed around with linux for a couple years so I thought this might be a great project to get back into it with. Maybe.
Questions I have-
- How easy is it to have a linux installation that just boots directly into the emulator? Since it will be hooked up to a tv, I just want it to be as easy as turning on the power button and then I'm off.
- Is there a stripped down linux distro that would be best suited for this type of setup? Really any recommendations for a distro would be great.
- Its running on old hardware- 900mhz athlon, 512mb ram, geforce2 video. Will this be a problem if I'm trying to run something like i've described?
