The server install image allows you to install Ubuntu permanently on a computer for use as a server. CD images for Ubuntu 16.04.7 LTS (Xenial Xerus) Server install image. Installs with error no working wireless Firefox does not play YouTube video no sound. BTW, I also tried PowerPC 10.04 LTS and everything worked-everything. I tried PowerPC Lubuntu (note the 'L' in Lubuntu) 12.10 with miserable results. I used Disc Tools to adjust the partition to 1 TB (which you can do starting in 10.5.8 and up), and installed the Ubuntu PowerPC 12.04.01 version along side OS X in the remaining 1 TB partition. My original testbed was a Late 2005 2.3 GHz Power Mac G5 Dual with 3 GB of RAM and two hard drives, one with OS X 10.4 Tiger, the other with OS X 10.5 Leopard.It’s my most powerful PowerPC Mac, so I figured it would be a good way to take Linux for a spin.
It's difficult to choose the linux distribution though because nothing over 12.04 LTS seems to work right, and PPC support isn't mainstream anymore. I've picked me up a G4 Mac Mini 1.33GHz PPC variant, and plan on running an in home web/file/torrent/icecast server. What are you planning on doing with your Mac? The Ubuntu community needs help from people with PPC hardware just like you. MATE has been ported over to PPC and is being tested. I think Ubuntu MATE is the best option for you. When it had tiger about a year ago, it was absolutely the beast and still held it's own REALLY well! In general, what is the best overall Linux OS for my mac? I need to see this mac get some use. I've been hearing about Yellow Dog Linux, MintPPC, Lubuntu etc for PowerPC. I've even seen lag up to Core i5 machines with Unity. I had simply forgotten that Unity is a stupid resource hog and the CPU is at a constant 100% usage even when navigating the GUI.
I had no restore disk, so I went ahead and used a PowerPC Port of 12.04 for PPC. Hi! I've got a Power Mac G4 MDD (Dual 1.0ghz, 2GB RAM, fuckton o' harddrives and Radeon 9000 Pro AGP) and Tiger decided it hated life, so I had to format it and install a new OS.
