I accidentally had the Mac OS X install CD booted on my ibook2, which
defaults to disable the startup sound.
Now I am looking for a possibility to reenable this sound in Open
Firmware.
You sure the volume isnt muted?

Yes.

Thanks alot! Zapping the PRAM did the trick (command + option + p + r)

IIRC Woody has a 2.2 kernel by default, and that probably does not
support USB. Try a 2.4 or 2.6 kernel.

How can you tell which kernal you have? I have failed to learn where |
the kernal is located. The boot kernal used by bootx is 2.4. Even so,
it seems like there should be some support for adb from a distro that
claims to run on a mac.

I put the wrong link for the entire manual but you will probably get the
drift.
I think it may also be on your distro cd in html, readable from a
browser in macos.

I confess that I have not yet tried your last suggestion. It occurs to |
me that I have asked the wrong question. Probably what I really need to
know is how to get Debian or x-windows to recognise a adb mouse. There
is a macintosh keyboard selection in the system installer but nothing
that specifically mentions adb or macintosh mice. That is more ancient
technology that should be in some way supported. Any clues there?
