Thanks for the link, I may check into it, but low probability of time to get 14.10 running on the iMac . . . I'm simply assuming it is "unsupported" . . . vis video drivers . . . I heard "nv" is no longer available, etc. > > > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ > (there are many paragraphs of discussion about proper boot parameters > and different options for different graphics chips) > This 1371651***might*** be an issue on the iMac, since the screen went green/black to black, as it does w/o proper xorg.conf file . . . I can't tell if it gets to lightdm, of course on the "live desktop" I think it just goes to the desktop, right? And, same thing on iBook, since I booted the live version it just went to Desktop. > > however, this may still be an issue: > https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1371651 > > On the iBook it is not a "blank GUI" . . . it is a GUI that freezes or I guess we could say, "crashes" . . . but leaving the GUI present . . . all the buttons and windows are there, but nothing responds. I would assume that is a bug of some type, when I get time I'll try to file or find an appropriate bug for the new problem . . . which isn't exactly new, since in 14.04 on the iBook, window dragging is "blotchy" . . . slow, and scrolling is slow . . . . So, whatever that issue is has either not been handled or has possibly worsened on the PPC platform? The "nosplash" thing I got from the Yaboot "tab" key . . . the "quiet splash" thing had to do with the fix for another bug on "gdm" or lightdm??
