No proper Alphas exist for my PowerPC port, but I've tried to install a few recent daily PPC builds from ISOs and also tried network installation directly from the online repositories (my preferred method, successful for previous releases). I can always get the base Hoary system installed just fine, but when it comes to installing 'ubuntu- desktop', there always seems to be one dependency package or another missing from the ISO and/or repository, which causes failure of the 'ubuntu-desktop' meta-package installation.
I only need to install enough over the base system to see if X will start for me. If someone could recommend a more specific package, or brief list of packages, that I can install piecemeal via aptitude just to test my X startup, I'd be glad to try that. -- X aborts w/ backtrace: 'Mode pool is empty' and 'No valid modes found' https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/180960 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
