Hello list,
I just updated my ibook g3. The monitor broke down, so I upgraded my harddrive from 20GB to 80GB at the same time. Now, two weeks after the first time I re-installed gentoo nothing really seems to work any more. I belive most of the problems are associated with xorg, since that is the only major diffrence from my last installation (xfree).
* Firefox craches before starting.
* Java applications does not listen to my mouse events.
* Can't get the xv-driver (ati r128/of/fb) to work.
I consider falling back on my old gentoo installation, but I'd rather stay with xorg since that is what the portage team obiously seems to think is better for me.
Anyone care to help me out a bit?

Seeing as how you have java installed, your firefox problems are
probably being caused by the java plugin, which isn't compatible with
newer versions of mozilla/firefox. Remove the plugin and see if that
fixes your problem. There currently is no Java plugin available for PPC.

Please try using Xautoconfig-0.22-r2 to set up your Xorg install, the
font directories above are incorrect. Since you have a r128 chipset, try
building only the atyfb128 frame buffer module into your kernel. For
DRI, you will also need to build in the DRI/DRM module and the ATI
Rage128 DRM module.
Good luck,

Why do you use blackdown at all? Stick with ibm and use opera/konqueror
for java-enabled pages (they don't require a plugin).

The IBM JDK/JRE doesn't work with IntelliJ, my prefered Java IDE.
DRM does not compile with anything else but 2.4 kernels.
I'm falling back on my old Xfree when I get home from work.
