There 'may' be a kernel rebuld for ppc, as there is a possibility that something got dropped. The release team are awaiting with baited breath, the results of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian- installer/+bug/987764 We're in the laps of the Gods at this stage, and I very much doubt

@ikke Thanks for the comment. I'm afraid it is almost certainly too late for 12.04 to get these changes in. It is unlikely that there will be another kernel upload before release. Considering this probably affects half of the PowerPC mac users the amount of people reporting this bug is pitifully

Just a quick comment to explain why the aty_128 framebuffer needs to be built in. The r128 video driver has UseFBDev set to on for PowerPC (see the manual http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/precise/en/man4/r128.4.html ). Thus without the framebuffer loaded the r128 video driver will boot to a te

More on the splash screen colours (going off topic) - I think it is caused by the framebuffer being set to 8 bit depth? In 10.04 the splash screen is blue instead of purple, but looks acceptable. In 12.04 Lubuntu it is all wrong. Currently I cannot figure out how to set the framebuffer depth wit

I've been playing a bit more with this. I now think it is agpgart rather than uninorth_agp that influences whether KMS reverts to PCI mode or not. Well that is what it seems to be under 10.04. Agpgart is built into 12.04 already so I guess the nouveau people have been using AGP mode all along?
