Linux for power mac g53/16/2024 I finally got around to making the new sides and top for the plywood G5. Ill get it working eventually but my bsd/linux skills just arent that great. Im working on getting open bsd 7 installed but not all of the desktop enviroment packages for the ppc version seem to be fully working and i want more than a simple window manager. I tried adelie linux as suggested by action retro on youtube but i was getting the same bizzare issues some other people in the comments said they had with stuff not rendering properly and stuff like the terminal being missing, doesnt seem like the bugs are completely worked out yet but it has potential. I would recommend the lubuntu remix to other G5 users, i didn't have to do anything funny to get it working. It seems fine for just browsing forums and what not, i don't know that i would watch youtube on it though i haven't tried it out to see how well it works. I installed that lubuntu 16.04 remix on a spare drive and im pretty happy with it. I wish it was faster but apart from that one issue with the door sensor its been dead reliable. No real updates on the plywood G5, im just enjoying using it at the moment, it feels nice to use. It doesn't seem like the mods like that, i didn't ask them to remove your link they did it before i even saw your post. I don't know that i would post ebay links in threads in the future. Its alright, i had honestly forgotten about the G4 discussion, been a bit to laser focused on G5s the last couple days. Don't let it deter you from elaborating on your project. I meant no offense by posting the link, I realize it is a bit ot for the thread. Look at the first 2 jpegs at the top of the page where your question appears.
