It's the single CPU G5 names PowerMac9,1 in /proc/device-tree/model right ? It should indeed work with recent kernels. I got some code in 2.6.15 but there might still have been unresolved issues. Make sure you load the windfarm_pm91 module and let us know... If it doesn't work, try an up to date git snapshot. If still doesn't work, let me know and we'll track the problem down." I have been told by some people claiming to be in the know, that the G5 single (PowerMac 9.1) is similar to the iMac internally, just with a G5 exterior, of course. This with which windfarm modules are needed for which model - is it pinned down? Should I file a separate bug report on the windfarm_pm91 module and G5 single machines??? Thermal control is still not working for me with the new Edgy builds. -- 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
