Please splurge for an internal test unit. There have been more than enough user bug reports over many months/years. For sale on eBay and other places.
The iMac G5 needs to be part of the official Ubuntu dev/release cycles, not an afterthought. If we want a Linux that takes endless debugging, Googling, and hacking, well, why use Ubuntu for that? Any other distro will do. The whole point of Ubuntu was regular packaging and compatibility testing. If the Ubuntu team is not going to do that for iMac G5's then it should be removed from the list of supported hardware. That would be sad but at least more honest. -- iMac G5 will freeze after booting up https://launchpad.net/bugs/23445 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
