Spectre i had been tested Lubuntu 15.04 and is not working on my Quad ... the kernel is not the best for my configuration.
Only black screen after Open Firmware kernel load.

Could you compile an own kernel for 15.04?

@All

I tested QEMU 2.2 on ubuntu MATE 15.04 with the kernel 4.00 alpha 4 today. I booted my first Linux distribution that I ever bought. It's S.u.S.E Linux 5.0 from 1997. That's really impressed to work with my first Linux distribution and with the modern ubuntu MATE 15.04 PowerPC together at the same time.




It's nice to see the old S.u.S.E FVWM 2 and the old Netscape browsers.

Have a nice weekend!

Hi All,

Today I tested QEMU 2.2 with ubuntu MATE 15.04 again. I booted Windows NT 4.0 with QEMU. In addition I tested the kernel 4.00 RC1 with ubuntu MATE 15.04 today. It boots and works without any problems.



PLEASE test the development version 15.04.

Cheers,

Christian
