*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 23445 *** Hi, i do not think it is a duplicate bug, because disabling sound did not fix all the problem. the system does not freeze completly, but the xserver only shows a black screen after starting gdm!!! -- Dapper Release Canidate fails to boot on iMac G5 https://launchpad.net/bugs/46699 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 23445 *** For me the sound was the issue too. Knowing that I managed to log in the graphic interface (but the fan go fast which is a different problem). An other way than the one suggested by Ludovic (easier for people who are not familiar with vi): at the log choose terminal session then start x (type startx as root). You have now the x interface in which you can make the corrections. Could someone precise what are the corrections we have to make under Kubuntu. Here /etc/gdm/gdm.conf has to be replaced by /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc. But I did not see how to disable the sound. -- Dapper Release Canidate fails to boot on iMac G5 https://launchpad.net/bugs/46699 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I don't agree with you Mark. (1) I tried ubuntu 6.06 on a imacG5 (quite recent. unfortunately I cannot precise which version). The bluetooth worked (and communicated with the palm) and the micro$oft three-button mouse worked too. (2) BUT on the iMac G5 1.8 GHz/17 M9843 ubuntu freezes (see above). I have to precise to Mark that on iMac G5 1.8 GHz there are no wireless keyboard and no blutooth used at all. -- Dapper Release Canidate fails to boot on iMac G5 https://launchpad.net/bugs/46699 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I think this is a duplicate of bug #23445. Try this workaround: * boot using Linux single so gdm is not started * do not use tab on the console * disable sound in gdm by setting SoundProgram=/bin/true SoundOnLogin=false In /etc/gdm/gdm.conf -- Dapper Release Canidate fails to boot on iMac G5 https://launchpad.net/bugs/46699 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 46699] Re: Dapper Release Canidate fails to boot on iMac G5
Hi I have the same problem. And I had the same problem with Breezy and the 6.06Beta (ubuntu had never worked on my imac). I was at an install party ubuntu on saturday in Paris with a lot of geeks. I am now able to say a bit more: - First the desktop-ubuntu works perfectly (even bluetooth) under imac G5 rev c. - BUT it does not work with iMac G5 1.8 GHz/17 M9843. I tried the desktop and the alternate cd (both in normal install and powerpc64 specific install). Evreytime the same problem: while loading the modules the color of the kubuntu's sign is ugly (not the blue one wich appears usually). Then arrive time to login. The system freezes while initializing peripheals. I also tried without starting X but after a couple of seconds (perhaps 20) the system freezes. Do not hesitate if requiere further information. -- Dapper Release Canidate fails to boot on iMac G5 https://launchpad.net/bugs/46699 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi, me too, count on me if I can help a bit. For information, I've had the same type of problem with the Yellow Dog Linux installation : Install is ok, but when the login prompt appears, nor the mous nor the keyboard works (tried in bluetooth and in USB).
