I'll ask the -release team about it tomorrow, I think it needs a tweak in ubiquity to allow the 'M' processor and I'm not sure if they have previously looked into it and decided against it. Regards, Phill. On 14 March 2013 17:22, Nio Wiklund wrote: > Is there a way to send this task to a deve

Is there a way to send this task to a developer, who would know 1. where that test is done (the source code) 2. how to do it (or pass the code to someone less skilled, but enough skilled to compile and try out a snippet with that particular test on various computers). If it is plain C or a bash

I was thinking about how to report a bug: what details to check out and explain. I think I understand what you want to do, and I think it will be possible, but, well, I've retired from programming. Nowadays I'm helping and testing. So I don't know where and how that check should be changed. But w

We were just looking at how to possibly fix the CD loader to not require 7bit Like: If Pentium M { Skip PAE Check } Else If (PAE=1) { boot(); } Else { paeErrorBoot(); } Sorry O only knew how to write that out in java :) Sent from my iPad On Mar 14, 2013, at 1:17 AM, Nio Wiklund

Hi Phill, I have an IBM Thinkpad T42 with a non-pae Pentium M, that accepts 7bit's fake-pae. What do you need? Please specify in detail, and I'll try to do it :-) Nio alias sudodus On 2013-03-13 02:45, Phill Whiteside wrote: > Hi alex, > > I do not have enough information to ask the developers

Hi alex, I do not have enough information to ask the developers about your problem. We really do need a bug filing as per my earlier email to you. Regards, Phill. On 12 March 2013 14:15, Phill Whiteside wrote: > Oooch! > > You can always grab a non-pae version and install that so that the mac

Oooch! You can always grab a non-pae version and install that so that the machine has a (u)buntu running. Lubuntu were still certainly releasing non-pae versions up to 12.04 *i386 *[1] which should install on that machine. Regards, Phill. 1. http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/precise/re

Hi Alex, would you please raise a bug against ubiquity, open a terminal session and issue: ubuntu-bug ubiquity from the pentium M machine, I'm not too sure what the team can do about it if the machine does not advertise it, but it will allow them to have a think. Regards, Phill. On 12 March 2

Hmm...I also notice that there is an issue with Pentium M models...they have PAE but yet don't advertise it...is there any way to allow the PAE ISOs to boot on Pentium M computers? I've been told it had to do with the boot check, not an actual failed boot Sent from my iPad On Mar 12, 2013, at 8:
