There was a progression in my story of several attempts to use "manual" install, in both Lubuntu 14.04 && U-MATE 15.04 . . . all of which failed. I then deleted my manually constructed partitions, making them "free space" and I ran the installer as "automatic" "install alongside OSX" and that install was "successful" . . . except for the kerenl crash dump, which I thought was because of my editing of the Yaboot and making of Xorg.conf file . . . but from reading posts on Apple Hardware User forum, other people have had these same issues with Yaboot not installing and kernel dumps in 15.04 . . . . .

But, and speaking very frankly, 10.4.11 still runs both of my PPC machines very well, and with Ten4Fox I have an updated browser . . . and so far I'd have to say that linux for PPC has not caught up to even Tiger in terms of how it runs the machine for basic tasks. I am waiting for the day when PPC linux can run a machine and offer basic stuff like "sleep" such that the machine isn't running at top speed or shut down . . . clean graphics . . . stable kernel. As I've mentioned 12.04 came the closest for ease of install and basic operation, since then it's clear that PPC is dropping off the radar and is seemingly getting worse in implementation and development rather than better . . . . Of course that is my subjective experience, but seems like the "bugginess" of 15.04 has been confirmed by other PPC users . . . one gentleman proclaiming that he is "selling his G5 and abandoning the fight" . . . so he apparently sees the PPC devs as adversarial in nature . . . ???? Or, in my case . . . unresponsive . . . . . As of now it appears as though 15.04 has broken the ability of my iBook to connect to the ubuntu ports . . . so any insights on how to remedy that situation would be directed to the present problem . . . . It looked like if I could run update/dist-upgrade a new kernel would be installed and perhaps that would fix this crash problem??? Also a "dhcp" was listed, which might possibly fix the ethernet problem???? F > > > ______________________________ >
