Re: stranded Ibook g4 users
Thanks again for the input
So this would be a Ubuntu specific problem... that might convince me to
switch to sid...
How would Xorg cause this problem...
anyway here is my /proc/cpuinfo
processor : 0
cpu : 7447A, altivec supported
clock : 533MHz
revision : 1.1 (pvr 8003 0101)
bogomips : 530.43
machine : PowerBook6,5
motherboard : PowerBook6,5 MacRISC3 Power Macintosh
detected as : 287 (iBook G4)
pmac flags : 0000001a
L2 cache : 512K unified
memory : 256MB
and here is my Xorg config
