Powerbook Ubuntu!

Dec 06, 2006 01:55

Since my Ubuntu/Windows dual-boot went so well, I decided to try it on my Powerbook G4 too. And Ubuntu is great - although there was a slight snafu getting my wireless card to work. Just followed all the instructions on this page, installed Network Manager, and removed all lines except for lo and eth0 in my /etc/networking/interfaces.

Mac-On-Linux was more disappointing. It installed just fine, and ran just fine, but I could not get more than an 8-bit color depth running OS X from MOL. Apparently this, and my sleep problems, have something to do with my nVidia drivers and is not fixable. :(
