Could you tell us more, please? On <http://www.ppcnerds.org/displayarticle64.html> (found with Google), I can read: Debian is known to have a full working ppc64 port, isos are downloadable from their site. The limit of usability is always in the kernel, that at the moment does not support all the features one would like to get from the G5 (one of the more popular problems is the fan control, as an example). Debian is always a good choice for its apt-get system and for the great work debian developers do. However, fan control is very important. I'm very interested in buying a dual-G5, but I want a silent machine... Is there a web page that says what is supported exactly and what isn't? -- Vincent Lefèvre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> - 100% validated (X)HTML - Acorn Risc PC, Yellow Pig 17, Championnat International des Jeux Mathématiques et Logiques, TETRHEX, etc. Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / SPACES project at LORIA
