Debian on my iMac G3 (600mhz 256mb ram)

[tehmattbookpro]

Worked great on 2 of my graphite G3's. Ha, it works better with Debian on it than OS 9 or 10.3, that's for sure. Both are great operating systems, but Debian has a bit more web 2.0 in it based on it's date of creation. Great post! Good to see you got it working beyond the command line. There's also Arch Linux for PPC processors, I'm going to try it out tonight.

@directxxxx Sure, head to/ debian.org/distrib/netinst and look under "Small CDs" and click the link for PowerPC I think it's up to 6.0.3 now though

Is this 'get' url still working ? Would really like to install the 5.07 version but want to be sure of the effectivity before erasing tiger :-).

does it play youtube videos ?

[mlthomp1981]

@kris200998 Oh no lol.. far too weak a processor for that. It will surf the internet fairly well though in general.

Did you get the sound to work?

[mlthomp1981]

@MarioZeldaPokemon Yep. Everything works exactly how it's suppose to =)

[MarioZeldaPokemon]

@mlthomp1981 I tried installing it on an iBook G3, and the sound refuses to work. >__< I'll try installing it to my iMac (same exact as yours), because it seems to work on that.

[mlthomp1981]

Yep. Thats a 600mhz snow iMac G3. =)

[STOPTHEEU]

Is that the G3 snow? :O
