That's good to know. Both my G5s needed PRAM resets (Option-Command-P-R,
which is quite special to manage with one hand), SMU resets (the tiny tact
switch below the SIMMs) and a battery check.

I have a similar boat-anchor Mac G5. Lubuntu PPC works quite well on it. I
can't upgrade from 16 to 18 yet, doesn't seem to be supported or the distro
isn't ripe yet.
You pick up one from Masterfile too?
Cheers,
William
