PPC: 1. Beta-CD, known erros
Known problems in SuSE Linux PPC Beta
- The keyboard does not work well under X11.
There is an update package on our ftp server that solves those problems:
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/ppc/update/BETA/xkb_update-2000.01.10-5.ppc.rpm
- To switch the console, use the command key, we thought that would be better
- USB Keyboards don't work 100% on ISO keyboards, the less than/greater than key exists twice.
There is a kernel update on our ftp server. It also contains drivers for ISDN cards
(e.g. AVM Fritz PCI, Elsa PCI, Sedlbauer PCI, Eicon Diehl PCI). If you don't have a USB
keyboard and don't need ISDN card drivers you won't need this kernel.

- On new G4 machines sound doesn't work, when BootX is used for booting.
Boot using OpenFirmware instead.
Instructions for this can be found in our support database (SDB).
