Re: [PPC] 13.10

 

Hi Phil,

The first thing I always do is try to boot the Live CD without any parameters, so as to check for the "fixing recursive..." bug.

I can confirm it is gone.

The only boot parameter I needed was to fix the low color depth.

Hi,

that's excellent news! The guys were obviously concentrating on a working kernel, that the graphics seems still to be 'as per usual' is wonderful. Can people check to see if the bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1066435 has been vanquished?

Regards,

Phill.

Hi Phil,

I tested the Live CD today, then did a manual install from the Live CD. Both test cases passed.

The usual boot parameter was needed to get the correct color depth for the Live CD, and I noted it in the comment section of the test case. Otherwise, everything seems to be working normally, again. : )

Best regards,

Keith

Hi folks,

as of when the next rebuild happens [1] the kernel for ppc should now boot okay. This has been tested with servers (G3 & G5) only and how it behaves with the multitude of graphics cards apple shipped with their machines is an unknown. Below is the chat I had:

So, allow the daily to build and start testing!!!
