Hi Maps,<div><br></div><div>thanks for bringing this up. Can I ask that anyone with access to PPC kit please do join the lubuntu-qa team [1]. We really do need some bodies about to ensure that we have a good ppc release for 12.10. I assure you, we do not bite! </div>

i know many of you are using lubuntu as a way to bring old ppc machines back to life, so this will be relevant to you, especially in that there are many obstacles one has to face in order to get everything set up with ppc. in any case, i don't know the exact details, but it looks like there are some changes on the horizon with linux kernel 3.5-rc7 that include ppc fixes.<div>
