I have a working dual boot Gentoo // OS X 10.1.5 configuration on
my ibook 2 (600 MHz, 12" LCD, ATI Rage128 card (not the Radeon!)).

Unfortunately, I can't get MOL to work (which emerged fine from
the ebuild); maybe someone can help me:

Full screen mode: OS X starts up wonderfully. However, I can't
use the keyboard, e.g., in a terminal window, the first key I press
gets repeated infinitely (just like I were running 'yes <key>').
I suppose my ADB keyboard ID is c4; that's what dmesg seems
to suggest, I also pass the kernel the
keyboard_sends_linux_keycodes=1 string.
Whenever I try to start mol (from console for full screen OS X), I
get:

...
Could not open proc/sys/dev/mac_hid/keyboard_sends_linux_keycodes
...
Adbcode -1 out of range (max=127)
<repeated about 20 or so times>
...

Everything else seems OK. Does anyone have suggestions what
I can/could do? I am really stuck? Whatever I tried did not lead to
any progress. I'm happy to provide more info if needed.

A second question, but that is secondary: What combination of
XF86 settings and molrc.video settings are people using? Normal
X is working fine, OPEN GL is hardware accelerated. However,
OS X started from X Windows is absolutely distorted colorwise, it
looks as if it neither gets its own palette, nor does it get enough
colors. This looks like it's going to be my second problem after the keyboard.

Thanks for any help!

Stefan

Try MOL 0.9.66

It's not yet released, but you can download the source code and it 'just works'.
