Re: [PPC] Fwd: [Bug 1080790] [NEW] PowerPC Lubuntu 12.10 - Alsamixer Mute button won't un-mute

 

Have attempted the install, and am unable to get that far. Installation hangs at:

"Retrieving Apt-Setup-udev"

May be a problem here. I have a rather flaky internet connection on my eMac at times - particularly in the evenings. Will try again tomorrow.
