[QUOTE="Lycus, post: 503831, member: 38995"] Better support for what, exactly? At this point, installing wireless in Ubuntu for any Mac is quite easy, but this is potentially-so for other Linux distributions as well. Binaries (applications) with non-free licensing schemes (namely Adobe Flash) are still non-existent for PPC platforms. Canonical Ltd. (Ubuntu's developer) no longer officially supports PPC, but the Ubuntu PPC Community still distributes releases, and I am sure their release quality is on-par with the official releases. One of the great things about Ubuntu really is its helpful community. I highly recommend checking-out [url]https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ[/url] & [url]https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCDownloads[/url] The former link will answer more questions than you have, and quite specifically, I imagine.
