      Which is kind of odd, given they have ATI/AMD graphics cards, that should in theory have completly open source drives in the mainline kernel. Could at least be potentially fixable. Might also explain why more advanced sessions like KDE and the likes failed as well. Something is definitively screwy in the graphics stack there.

    Some of the problems might be related to the fact they're all running off llvmpipe(software rendering), except the one running off the live image(?!), rather than the proper graphics. Some packages responsible for the graphic drives might have been missing from the installation but were available on the live image

      @HorstGBurkhardt 9 часов назад +4

      The ATi cards are fine. They're not the problem.
      The problem is that in the Linux kernel and in Mesa a lot of stuff isn't really maintained, especially as the migration to dri2 left a bunch of older graphics cards in the dumpster fire of history.
      We're actually trying to get Rage support back, so that early G3s and the like are viable; but there's also a number of weird issues that come with having been the Correct architecture instead of simply the Popular architecture ;)
      I for one would love to see, by the way, an Intel Arc GPU on a Quad G5 or similar POWER machine (maybe a Talos II?) for the absolute shitpost.

You can NOT just normally burn the ISO as a file to the CD, it has to be burned as an image.
      To burn an ISO file to a CD in Windows 10, insert a blank CD into your drive, right-click the ISO file, select "Burn disc image," choose the correct burner, and click "Burn." The process will create a copy of the ISO on the CD, making it usable for installation or other purposes.

    I managed to re-install the original Mac OS onto a PowerBook G4 laptop. Haven't tried Adélie (French: pronounced AH-day-lee) on it yet, but might. Won't load most sites anyways as it is far outdated for updates.

    Oh! I guess the Firefox Start Page’s JS code crashes just like Google does in both browsers. But the Arctic Fox start page is still the old version.

    Is this just for Mac PowerPCs, or will it run on other things? I think the xBox360 and Wii are both PowerPC based...

      They are, but that doesn't mean they can run Linux. NetBSD does run on the Wii however

    Funny how, once, Google was preferred because it was simpler than the others.
    Did you try the mobile Google page, Sean?

    There is 0.00% chance you are not pronouncing MATE and Ma-te while saying ad-a-lee whilst the E literally has the accent. There is no way that isn't a troll. Well done, I hope.

    ...My favorite OS for PPC is...? MorphOS.
    No doubt a controversial suggestion, but maybe one worth trying?

    Maybe you'd take the hard-drive _(SSD probably if not HDD)_ from the PowerBookG4Titanium and, by temporarily installing it as a slave hard-drive such as SDA3 in an AMD64 or Intel Equivalent PC rather than Mac, using G4LGhost4Linux_UltimateBootCD _(rather than simply Clonezilla even if that too might be worth a secondary attempt),_ make an exact bit for boot copy using 1GB size chunks as per the 2GB limiting option for many tar-gzip files, so it can be restored to another equally-sized slave SSD drive such as 'SDA4' so that you can then put that SDA4 into the Mirror-Doors PPC Mac as a master _(thereby no longer calling it SDA4),_ having it boot with safe-mode style flags, especially for graphics-driver woes avoidance. Browsers might still not work and even if they do yet another glitch might occur such as some API interaction with something akin to the hardware abstraction layer on account of some graphics driver. However, 'blagging-it' by running QEMU on a core such that an i586 OS, like Debian, can be booted to run a browser might work albeit with snail-pace performance but simply for some proof of concept or way to then coniser running some FTP or PuTTY or TTY session testing _(and MineTest)._ Arguably, perhaps some sort of VMware style virtual-machine is another way to try that but QEMU can emulate entire microarchitectures, especially with custom firmware emulation. Would take a lot of research though. Having some sort of HTOP and TTY session running listening to the kernel might help viewers see what is experiencing down-time on your computers. Well done on trying what you managed on he video. The Wii-U has some PowerPC linux _(as you probably know already)_ and JTAG modded XBox360 consoles.
    My comment has no hate in it and I do no harm. I am not appalled or afraid, boasting or envying or complaining... Just saying. Psalms23: Giving thanks and praise to the Lord and peace and love. Also, I'd say Matthew6.

    Looks like video driver related issues. No hardware acceleration likely. I would check what driver X is using and if Mesa, etc are installed. Also, it could be running Wayland instead of X and that's another can of worms.
