Well of course, there's YellowDog, the RedHat of PPC. That was my distro
the first 2 years I used PPC Linux. Man, I'm glad I switched to Debian. . .

My main reason for approaching Ubuntu is that they actually support very
few architectures; only those that they see as commercially viable.
Since they have a commercial interest in ensuring that this handfull of
architectures is well-supported, they are the best motivated people you
can find to

I guess my point is that it does matter who fixes alsa for it to be
usable for ppc. I agree in part it should not matter, to a point. It
should definitely be a ppc distro if not debian/ubuntu.

I remember I always got a pop thru my speakers every once in a while.
The volume settings where seemed to be somewhat "unlevel" too as using
kde's mixer always jumped my volume to a somewhat loud volume as the
volume increased.

They should get macs period. I know of one ppc dev that doesn't even
have a mac. Apple has to be the largest subset of ppc, certainly
commercially. That is reason enough to have their dev work and test
things out on macs. I can't even started to get them testing for the
DRI bug I have with
