Paul's 2.3.38 works fine, although there are some strange things to watch
out for (like mediabay in the swim3 floppy drive code).  With PowerMac
floppy support off it compiled fine.

rsync -auvz linuxcare.com.au::linux-pmac-devel /usr/src/linux-2.3-devel

Voodoo3 support seems pretty good in Paul's 2.3.38, although there are
major endian issues in text mode, and minor ones in X mode (using Kostas'
3.9.16).


Thanks,
Peter
