You might be better off trying to install Debian instead of Ubuntu- the Debian distro is still active. We had lots of trouble getting Xubuntu working on 1Ghz G4 eMacs. We had to go with an older version, and if we updated it it died.
The Debian install did take some messing around. It originally booted to a black screen. I ended up having to boot a live CD of gnustep PPC<http://io.debian.net/%7Etar/gnustep/>, and replace the Debian xorg.conf file with the one that gnustep PPC generated. It did take some poking around in terminal mode, but far less than the xubuntu install did. -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
